DALTON DAYS

Showdown on Crooked Creek

July 13-14, 2012

 

Dalton Days July 13-14, 2012

Cowboys, Cowgirls, stick horse races, fun run, parade, ice cream crank off, kids fast draw contest, cowboy church, chuck wagon breakfasts are all on tap for the annual Dalton Days celebration to be held on Saturday and Sunday July 13th & 14th. This year the celebration will be in conjunction with the Meade County Ranch Rodeo... lots of Wild West fun!

The Reenactment Guild of America gunfight and living history competition has been an ongoing event for five years here at the Dalton Hideout. It is one of only two competitions in the state of Kansas.

Once again, we will have the ever popular ice cream crank off, where competitors will have to use a hand cranked ice cream freezer to whip up their own recipe of homemade ice cream. No store bought mixes are allowed. After the ice cream is judged it will be handed out to the public so get there early so you can get some of the best ice cream in Kansas.

The Way Out West off Broadway Players will present a melodrama! Time and date to be announced.

Cowboy church will be held at 8:00 on Sunday morning. Reenactments will continue on into the afternoon with the RGA awards ceremony after all gunfight teams and living historians have performed and the judges scores totaled.

We would like to remind everyone that there will no $5.00 button sales this year so this is all free of charge. We, of course, would accept any donation to Dalton Days to help keep this event going, and we encourage you to purchase one of our shiny new Dalton Days badges as a souvenir of this years event. We hope to see y’all at Dalton Days July 13th & 14th  at the Dalton Hideout in Meade, Kansas.
