6:00-8:30 Saturday Evening Campfire: The ranch buildings will close at
5:30, giving folks a chance to grab a bite to eat in town before returning
to the Visitor Center for the evening campfire, which will be held in
the pasture north of the Visitor Center. The evening will include a "pre-campfire"
from 6:00-6:30, to teach kids (and interested grownups) the words to some
popular campfire songs, so they'll be able to join in the singing later.
New Mexico singer and poet Sid Hausman will perform, as will the Bozeman
duo, Open Range. Bring a guitar, fiddle, banjo or a wax paper comb - just
be prepared to join in! We also recommend bringing something to sit on,
although we have very comfortable pastures.
