Gainesville, TX Monthly Roundup @ Dennard's Western Wear
Dec 13 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm

A Western Store? For a Roundup? But that’s weird, right? WRONG! Dennard’s Christmas time VIP sale is off the chain! They serve free food and drinks and I don’t mean little appetizers while you shop. I mean beef and chicken with all the sides. One year they grilled up a whole bunch of filet mignon! Last year was briskett and sausage. Whatever they have is gonna be good and then after dinner you can take advantage of the phenomenal sale they have going on. And they just about doubled the tack and clothing sections, recently.
