Even if you don’t win a prize, those wearing western wear clothing will receive special discounts at several Market Street stores.

Other festivities include live country music from the band “Austin”, demonstrations from equestrian groups and Old West re-enactors, performances from the Lone Star Cow Girls, great Texas cuisine from Jasper’s Restaurant, special discounts from Market Street stores and restaurants and real Texas longhorns.
