Event Description:

Every year the Dalton Gang Hideout in Meade is invaded by gun slinging cowboys and pretty ladies from the Reenactment Guild of America who compete in the Dalton Days competition.

The Reenactment Guild of America (RGA) is a national organization of gunfight teams and living historians dedicated to the true and accurate history of the nineteenth century. These cowboys and cowgirls spend countless hours researching and rehearsing their gunfight skits and living history presentations and are among the best in the country. The competitions provide great entertainment during the festival.

Other festival activities include a parade, Dalton Fun Run for those that are fleet of foot, stick horse races and other kids games, the always popular home-made ice cream crank off, chuck wagon breakfast both days, old west vendors, a dance, an old west melodrama, good food and Cowboy church on Sunday morning.

The event is held in conjunction with a Ranch Rodeo which will take place July 13 and 14, at the Meade County Fairgrounds... making it a full weekend of wild west fun!
