There are not only Livestock show competitions, Horse competitions, School Art competitions and auctions, but there are activities for the whole family to come out and enjoy.

You will also find a mega array of vendors and exhibitors set up in NRG Center offering everything from the perfect western hat or cowboy boots to go along with that one of a kind outfit you’re sure to find.

There’s no lack for food as tents are set up right outside catering to all taste buds from BBQ to seafood, and of course turkey legs. Make sure to save room for one of kind desserts such as the fried brownie ball w/ice cream or maybe try your hand at the bacon wrapped Oreo.
