Leitko Wins 152nd Schützenfest

Trey Leitko was crowned Sunday as the new König (king) after he won the 152nd Round Top Rifle Association’s Schützenfest. He is shown above with a cedar crown on his head and being hoisted up by fellow Round Top Rifle Association Members. The Schützenfest contest involves shooting .22 caliber rifles with open sites at a target that is 168 feet away. Morgan Limmer won the youth division. Monica Fricke won the ladies division. The Round Top community gathered in support of the new king for a night of music, dancing and a keg of German beer, tapped by the new king. Photo courtesy of Gary McKee, Texas Polka News
