Horse Drive

Come on down to Gardiner, for a celebration of the Wild West! Bring your camera, and dancing boots and help us raise money for veterans at this family fun event. The horses, cowboys, and cowgirls race through town and up to the town of Jardine. There is plenty of opportunity for getting some great pictures. Or you may just want to enjoy watching the herd run by. You can follow them up to the Jardine Rodeo Grounds, where the real fun begins. All of the net proceeds go to fund Action Trackchairs for disabled veterans. These chairs are custom built and allow folks with disabilities to reclaim their freedom, independence, and mobility in the outdoors.

Tickets this year are $25 for adults and $20 for kids 16 and under. Children under 5 are free and welcome. There is plenty of space for parking, and all tickets will be sold at the gate. There is room for anyone that would like to attend.

We gladly take cash or checks. We dont have a way to accept credit cards. We hope you come and bid on some fabulous items that have been donated this year.

If you can't attend but would like to make a donation, checks can be mailed to:

Entertainment this year by Wyile Gustafson

Wylie Gustafson is an American original.  The native Montanan singer/songwriter has recorded 24 albums backed by over 3 decades of performing around the world.  He remains distinct in country music as one of the few authentic voices of the genre.  Wylie’s muse is the empty sprawl of his native Montana home where he crafts the words and music that reflect his life on the 4th generation family ranch. 

For over the last 33 years, he and his band, The Wild West, have performed their refreshing blend of cowboy, western, and traditional country. They are hugely popular on the festival and theatre circuit. Stateside, they have performed at such prestigious venues as the National Folk Festival, MerleFest, the Bumbershoot Festival, The Stagecoach Festival, A Prairie Home Companion, The Conan O’Brien Show and the Grand Ole Opry (with over 50 guest appearances). Worldwide, their universal appeal has taken them to China, Russia, Australia, Europe, South America, and Japan. As one critic called him, “The coolest cowpoke around.  Forget everything you hate about modern Country, this guy is old school cool without being a tired period piece.”
