MAKES IT'S OFFICIAL DEBUT!

RIBBON CUTTING


Our Hands-On, Interactive Exploratorium,
Adventures of the Cowboy Trail, made its debut performance on Thursday, July 17, 2008.  Pam Minick (Chief Operating Officer-TCHOF) was our Master of Ceremonies for ther event. Present for the ribbon cutting were (l-r) Brenda Kostohryz (Chief Operating Officer-TCHOF), Kristin Liggett (City of Fort Worth Herd), Holt and Jo Hickman (Owners-TCHOF), Jason Wyse (Bass Hall) and Grant & Griffin Minick (Pam's grandsons and our Official Cowboys working the event).

With generous grants from Fort Worth Promotion and Development Fund and Speedway Children’s Charities, Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame’s newest exhibit made its first appearance May 27th during the Sunnyvale Elementary School’s 4-Hour of Fun Tour. 


    
EXHIBIT WITH RIBBON

Our successful effort to bring forth the value of the western cowboy and wagon history to our guests helped us to meet the need of educating our younger guests during their regular guided tours of the museum. We noticed our younger participants attention was lost during their spoken tours so our hands-on, interactive exhibit helps them to see and learn about the true spirit of the West.  

The exhibit consists of four learning stations:

Packing for the Trail - kids learn how a cowboy would “pack” his horse for a long, trail drive.  Here's the exhibit but also see Garrett's excitement in the picture above.  He was our official Cowboy for the debut!)

Pack for the Trail 


Cowboy Alphabet
- Kids learn the importance of a brand and why they were used, then they “brand” a long horn (a flyer with information on the back about TCHOF, Historic Stockyards and City of Fort Worth).

 

 

 

THE CHUCKWAGON - Staff discusses supplies "packed" on the Chuck Wagon for the trail drive. Magnets are used to simulate the supplies and kids pack for their trip!

 

Chuckwagon

Treasure of the Trail – Kids dig in the sawdust for an arrowhead amongst the dust and rocks! 

KIDS DIG

We wish to thank the Fort Worth Promotion and Development Fund along with Speedway Children’s Charities for selecting us as recipients. Without their help, our children’s needs would not have been met, and the exhibit would never have been completed.

Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame features the
Sterquell Wagon Collection, the John Justin Trail of Fame, our Western Gift Shop, and the  Jersey Lilly Old Time Photo Parlor

In 2006-07, we proudly introduced three new, beautiful collections: The Chisholm Trail Exhibit, The History of the Charro Exhibit and The Zigrang Bit Collection.  These amazing collections contain original pieces showcased only in our museum.  On permanent display, the collections are historical, educational, and very unique.  You will enjoy viewing, reading and discussing each of these wonderful displays.

We are the newest attraction in the Fort Worth Stockyards.  We opened in 2001, and we pay tribute to over 70 of the top cowboys and cowgirls in Texas. The museum is located in Barn A, in what was once the horse and mule barns in the Stockyards. Visitors see six exhibits for one, low, all-day admission fee.

The Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame honors Texas men and women who have excelled in the sports of rodeo, cutting and the equine industry. A few of inductees include Treavor Brazile, Don Edwards, George Straight, Lane Frost, Ty Murray Tuff Hedeman, Charmayne James , and Don Gay (8 time World Champion Bull Rider)!!! Each inductee has their own booth that contains personal photographs and memorabilia. Many of the booths also have videos, depicting the honorees’ careers in their respective events. (Learn about the nomination process)

Also included in the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame are the Sterquell Wagon Collection and the John Justin Trail of Fame. The Sterquell Collection is billed as “the world’s largest lifestyle wagon collection” and features more than 60 antique wagons, carriages and sleighs. Included in the exhibit:

  • A Sicilian cart dating to the 1750s, with dramatic painted scenes and intricate iron work

  • A Welsh funeral hearse, complete with beveled glass windows, gold leaf paint, and plumes

The John Justin Trail of Fame pays tribute to one of Fort Worth’s own, who spent a lifetime building the Justin Boot Company and became one of the city’s most prominent civic leaders. Included in the displays are a variety of boots, which were made for famous and not-so-famous customers, and photographs of Mr. Justin and the prominent people he knew as friends and through his business.
