Q&A

What should my teen wear? Casual, fun clothes! Teens can definitely where country western style clothes if they choose - jeans, hats, flannels, etc., however, it's not necessary.

When do we get further information about the event? On the Monday prior to the event, teens and parents will receive an email with event information, transportation information, reminders, rules, and emergency contact information.
