Experience the Annual Sagebrush Cowboy Gather held in Sheridan in February when herds of cowboy bards and balladeers gather to share their talent with each other and their audiences. 
The weekend of cowboy fun and entertainment includes Cowboy Kidz Poetry, a “Shoot-Out”, an annual Scott Redington Award and feature performances at the Wyo Theater. In previous years feature performers included cowboy entertainers:
-
Bar J Wranglers (Jackson cowboys offering harmony and humor),
-
TJ Casey (shared the stage with Ian Tyson, Merle Haggard, and the Everly Brothers)
-
Ken Overcast (eight CD recordings and a host of nominations, encluding the western Music Association Yodeler of the Year).
The Cowboy Kidz Poetry Contest showcases Champions and Reserve Champions from Wyoming Schools performing their poems to win a trophy, certificate and a chance to perform their poem on stage at the Wyo Theater during the evening feature performance.
Don’t miss the “Shoot-Out”. More entertaining than lethal, this event pits cowboy poets against the clock. Using one line, a pencil and paper, the cowboy poets must construct a rhyming cowboy poem in not more than an hour.
The public is invited to attend the free Open Sessions of cowboy music and poetry on Fridays and Saturdays. The Cowboy Kidz Contest and “Shoot-Out” are also free and open to the public. Everyone is welcome to attend the Sunday morning cowboy church service!
