Cowboy Symposium
Well it's that time of year again. The second weekend of October is when Ruidoso and the surrounding communities celebrate the American cowboy at the Lincoln County Cowboy Symposium. This is the 18th annual celebration, and it promises to be just as sensational this year as in years gone by. With a weekend medley of music, authentic chuckwagon cook-offs, cowboy poetry, horsemanship demonstrations, and craftsmen, you will have plenty to do and see.
The weekend kicks off at 9:00 a.m. on October 12 and ends Sunday afternoon October 14 at the Ruidoso Downs Racetrack. This year's performers will include Johnny Bush & The Bandoleros, Lynn Anderson, Red Steagall, Tommy Allsup, and Leon Rausch & the Texas Playboys. General admission tickets per day are $18 each. Concerts, meals, and package tickets are sold separately. For more information on schedules and ticket prices, please visit http://www.cowboysymposium.org/index.asp . Come and be a part of the celebration!
