Great Western Trail Drive
June 3-5, 2010
One of Oklahoma's best kept secrets is nestled away in Northwest Oklahoma. The Great Western Trail Drive is three days of historic adventure and good ol' western fun. As you drive a herd of longhorn cattle across the red dirt prairie or mosey along with friends exploring the creeks and canyons, you will enjoy endless skies that are painted with hues of purples, reds, and blues. At the end of the trail on Saturday, the Vici community will be hosting a day full of activities. The riders will drive the longhorns down Broadway to be the stars of the parade. There will be a complimentary fish fry (mountain oysters for the brave slickers), ranch rodeo (where at least one team is GWTD Riders), and a real boot scootin' dance that will top off your perfect adventure.
