Old West Festival 2013 *Giveaway*

Are you ready for Fall?  Not yet?  Me neither. 
 
BUT, I am ready for the Old West Festival!  And, if summer has to end, there's no better way to kick off Fall than by watching a rootin' tootin' gun fight (re-enacted of course), drinking some rootbeer, and dusting off my cowboy boots.

                                   

We went to the Old West Festival last year and had a blast.  We watched a horse riding show, got deputized, rode a covered wagon, collected wooden nickels and cowboyed up to the saloon for a rootbeer.  Middle Child and I got to wear our cowboy boots and meander around the historically accurate old west town. 


 

This year the Old West Festival runs from September 7 to October 6 and is located at 1449 Greenbush Cobb Rd. in Williamsburg, Ohio 45176 (just off U.S. Rt. 32, near Greater Cincinnati). 

They are open Saturdays and Sundays only!  Hours are 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (Rain or shine).

Tickets are $12 for adults and $6 for kids ages 6 to 12.  Kids 5 and under are FREE.  Parking is FREE. 

 
This year get ready to:
 
  • Watch The Pickled Brothers Circus
  • Let the kids become deputies
  • Enjoy a magic show
  • Check out a re-enacted gun fight
  • And more!!
Theme weekends are back:
  • Sept 7-8 Cowboy Hero Weekend (first 1,000 kids receive a free cowboy hat!  Active and Retired Military receive a $5 discount with military ID)
  • September 14-15 Native American Weekend
  • September 21-22 Steampunk Weekend
  • September 28-29 Villians Weekend (the first 1,000 children under the age of 12 receive a free bandana)
  • October 5-6 America’s Pastime Weekend --Watch the history of The Cincinnati Reds come to life through live, old-fashioned baseball games.

    My favorite Old West characters are the saloon girls, they were pretty brave to go against society and perform in bars!

    My favorite kind of Old West character is the sassy woman who can fight for herself and doesn't need a cowboy to rescue her. Naturally. :)
