and head to the Wild West WinterFest. Back for its fourth year, this event will offer a break from the winter time blues. WinterFest kicks off Friday and runs through Sunday. Some of the activities include horse drawn wagon rides, kid's special Roundup Rodeo, Old McLien's FFA Farm Barn full of farm animals for the kids and we even have a hockey tournament. If motors are your thing then come to the Auto and ATV Ice Racing event.

you're sure to see fender-bending happening. There's also a Working Horse & Driver Contest, Dog Events including Agility, Terrier Races, Conformation and Pet Tricks, a Chili Cook-off and even a Cowboy Camp with music, storytelling and elk bugling contest. Grab a partner to dance at the Bootlegger's Ball. There will be plenty of other music for entertainment throughout the weekend.

A children's art show, a quilt show, and even an open photography show can be seen in the exhibit buildings. At WinterFest Market, the vendors will be exhibiting their arts and crafts. Our newest event is the Dog Keg Pull where dogs of many breeds and sizes pull a full keg of beer on a sled. So, grab your galoshes, caps, mittens and coveralls and join in some Wintertime family fun.
