National Day of the Cowboy

Here in Wyoming, cowboys are a normal part of our everyday lives. How fortunate we are to be recognizing the 14th Annual National Day of the Cowboy on Saturday, July 28.

The National Day of the Cowboy organization is dedicated to preserving the cowboy way of life and the pioneer heritage and culture.

Coincidentally, Thermopolis has a couple of things going on that day that fit right in with that philosophy.

The Farmer’s Market is a prime example of the pioneer heritage and the sharing of crops between neighbors at harvest time.

The cowboy spirit lives on with the PeeWee 4-H and FFA horse show which is scheduled to begin on Saturday the 28th at 8 a.m. at the fairgrounds.
