Nick Dedaker was many things to many people, including a great husband, father, grandfather, brother, friend, teacher, coach, and hunting buddy. Everyone who had the fortunate opportunity to meet Nick Dedaker walked away feeling like they’d made a real friend.  Two of his passions were education, where he spent a career teaching and coaching, and The Compton Traditional Bowhunters youth program, where he served many years as Director and Board member. We felt it was only right to start a scholarship fund in his name. The amount of the Scholarships may increase depending on donations received to the fund, however at a minimum we will have two $1,000 scholarships, one for a young man, one for a young lady.  Applications must be postmarked by May 1st, with the winners to be announced Saturday evening at the Rendezvous the third full weekend in June.
