The 2012 Gathering is just a few days away and we are looking forward to seeing all of you at this year's historic event.  Last year's Gathering had record breaking attendance over previous years, and this year we anticipate setting new records. Thanks for helping keep this Cowboy tradition going.

The Chuck wagon was the backdrop of the original cowboy poetry gatherings on the early day cattle drives. While the cowboys ate their evening meal they would gather around the campfire to sing, recite poetry and tell stories.
