Benbrook TX- Participating in Cowgirl Colors Community Celebration (August 30, 2026)

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 19:00:00 GMT

The Cowgirl invited members of the Fort Worth community to take part in “Cowgirl Colors, A Community Canvas,” art project celebrating the cowgirl and the exciting expansion of the Museum.

“Cowgirl Colors, A Community Canvas” focuses on bringing the community together through art by inviting participants to paint 8 x 8-inch wooden panels inspired by the theme of cowgirls and the western lifestyle. The completed panels will become part of a vibrant public art installation spelling the word “COWGIRL” across a custom-installed fence at Alice Walton Park, located just south of the National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame and across the street from Dickies Arena.

Supported by Linbeck Construction, this colorful installation will reflect the creativity, stories, and shared pride of the Fort Worth community while honoring the enduring legacy of cowgirls who have shaped the West.

Participation in the art project was free and open to the public. Community members of all ages and artistic skill levels were encouraged to take part. As a token of the museum's appreciation, we are invited for an afternoon of photos, complimentary refreshments, giveaways and more.

To RSVP to the event, please email mailto:rsvp@cowgirl.net

The project is part of the celebration surrounding the expansion of the National Cowgirl Museum & Hall of Fame, reinforcing the museum’s mission to honor and share the stories of women of the West.

Belfair WA - Attending Steve Rother Horsemanship Cow Clinic (September 26, 2026)

Sat, 26 Sep 2026 15:00:00 GMT

Clinic Host: Charity Cook

Phone: cookcharity@aol.com

Email: 206-335-1158 or 509-674-3772

This clinic is designed to be an overall learning experience that builds on several aspects of communication, confidence, respect, trust, impulsion, and performance. The clinic is open to people of all skill levels and disciplines, beginner to advanced are welcome. We also welcome horses of all ages and breeds.

The Level 1 Class will be primarily focused towards teaching principles of safety, communication, and confidence building for both horse and rider. This is a great class for anyone who is new or still needing foundation exercises, lacking confidence, possibly looking to not canter too much (or wanting to try cantering more), having any major issues with their horse (bucking, rearing, etc.), or themselves. Green horses (less than 6 months of riding) should be in this class. We recommend this class if you have not previously done a clinic with Steve. It will run from 9:00am – 1:30pm.

The Level 2 Class will be primarily focused towards teaching more intermediate to advanced principles. In this class we will assume that you have basic understanding of natural horsemanship groundwork concepts and techniques and are willing to have a ‘go for it’ attitude. This class will involve advancing your groundwork techniques, body control, and riding maneuvers. If your horse has any behavioral issues (bucking, rearing, striking, etc.), this class is not for you. It will run from 2:00pm – 6:30pm.

Halloween also happens to be the Backcountry Horsemen of South Carolina's Revolutionary War-Themed Scavenger Hunt, making it a perfect opportunity to enjoy both events during the day. Riders who wish to participate can register for the scavenger hunt beginning at 10:00 AM in the equine parking lot.

Hosted by: Backcountry Horsemen of South Carolina

For additional information about the scavenger hunt, including rules, registration details, and event updates, please visit the Backcountry Horsemen of South Carolina website.

Kings Mountain's trails can be rocky in places, so hoof boots or sturdy shoes for your horse are recommended.

Whether you're participating in the scavenger hunt or simply enjoying a leisurely trail ride, fall is one of the best times to experience Kings Mountain State Park with fellow Cowgirls.

Evening BBQ & Bonfire

After a day on the trails, we'll head to Queen Joelle's house for an evening of BBQ, a crackling bonfire, and Halloween fun.

Bring:

A lawn chair
Your favorite flannel or cozy jacket
Your favorite beverage (BYOB)

Relax around the fire, enjoy great food and conversation, and celebrate Halloween with friends.

Coming From Out of Town?

We'd love to have our traveling Cowgirls join us!

Kings Mountain State Park offers an excellent equestrian campground featuring:

Equestrian campsites with horse corrals
20-, 30-, and 50-amp electrical service
Community water access (not at every campsite)
Multiple water spigots located throughout the campground for horses

Camping is a great way to enjoy the entire Halloween weekend with the group.

RSVP

Please register through Wild Apricot so we'll know you're coming. We'll also create a Facebook event thread to share updates, coordinate plans, and answer questions. Grab your horse, your Halloween spirit, and maybe even a festive costume, and join us for a day of adventure, friendship, and unforgettable fall memories!
