A 19th century cowboy transplanted to the present day would probably be perplexed by the modern world's high-tech marvels. But he would still feel right at home at a chuckwagon roundup. While the life of a cowboy has changed quite dramatically since the time of Charlie Goodnight and his first chuck wagon, the nature of the man who is a real cowboy remains much the same. Cowboy Roundup USA hopes we honored these men who are dedicated to a way of life that often affords only small to moderate financial gain. Rather, cowboys are grateful to live a simple life of hard work, fresh air and family. Cowboy Roundup USA, celebrated twenty-one years dedicated to preserving the ranching heritage of Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle. The event endeavored to educate the general public in the spirit of our Ranching ancestry and the lifestyle of the great American cowboy. We hope to do that again.
