Big Timbers History Corner #14 – Sand & Sage

In honor of the Sand and Sage Fair, here’s a shot of livestock visiting our area many, many years ago. Not the way they wash cattle for the fair these days, eh? The Arkansas looks pretty different, too! Makes you wonder what ranching in Prowers County will be like a hundred years from now….

Be sure to check out the Big Timbers Museum display while you’re at the fair!

Speaking of exhibits, Big Timbers Museum has herds of them to enjoy. Plus we consider all our visitors Grand Champions! Admission is only $3 for individuals, or $2 each for groups of 10 or more. $5 lets you bring the whole family for a fun learning experience that also helps preserve our Prowers County heritage for future generations. An even better deal is a membership, $10 for an individual and $15 for a family. Open 10 am to 5 pm Tues-Sat. Call 336-2472 for more details.
