    Hawken Classic 2024 - New Venue

    The city of St. Charles will only allow black powder shooting of blanks. No lead. We will have a canon fire and if anyone wants to shoot powder from the original Hawken brought by the Hawken Shop, they can fire over the river.

    Hawken Classic Supporters, Many of you have asked why the St. Charles County Parks Department cancelled the Hawken Classic’s venue at the Historic Daniel Boone Home in Defiance, Missouri. I don’t have a solid answer for you because the park refused to meet with us to even allow us to respond...

    Hawken Classic Location Cancelled by the St. Charles County Parks Department

    They never used that as a reason but they don’t feel that rendezvous’ align with their mission statement. Our event was a history education event and that is what doesn’t align with their mission. We will find a better location that does support American History.

    Thanks Mark! Many plan on getting there early on Thursday before it heats up. The park said they will open the gate at 7:30am but if you get there earlier than that, they will have the combo lock on as of Wednesday evening. So just let yourself in.
