Sam Houston Trail Riders Visit Tomball February 19th

By  | 

TOMBALL, TX – The Sam Houston Trail Ride arrives in Tomball on Tuesday, February 19th for two hours of old style western fun at the historic downtown 1907 Depot.

This annual event is when the whole community turns out to say howdy to the trail riders as they meander their way to the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo later in the week.

There will be music and old style western fun as the riders stop in Tomball for some grub and to visit the privy.  Event visitors can even slap on the feed bag with free vittles courtesy of H-E-B and Nonnie’s Café & Creamery, too.

Join the Tomball Community Center line dancers for a little mid-day “boot scootin’” and then show off your skill at the K-Star 99.7 FM stick horse barrel races along with on-air personalities Brave Dave and Lisa Christi. There will be free western hats for the kids, and RC Colas and Moon Pies while supplies last.

Tomball’s cowboy mascot, Dusty Trails will make an appearance along with his identical railroad cousin Rusty Rails. The City’s most popular downtown attraction, the Depot railroad museum, will be open with its model railways, memorabilia, and artifacts, too.
