GO!
Chuck Wagons are coming!
Limited number of dinner tickets available!
Step back into history and spend a day in the late 1800's. Restored antique chuck wagons are rolling in to celebrate the creator of the chuck wagon, Charles Goodnight, at the barn he built in Pueblo in 1870. Mosey around the wagons and watch the cooks at work, converse with the cooks & crew about their passion. Tour the barn, shop with the vendors and silent auction, chat with the period re-enactors as they display their historical artifacts in the barn. Draft horses and a longhorn will be hanging around too.
