Come bond with your horse and learn cowboy etequite, horse grooming, and riding. Then we'll attend the world renowned Black rodeo Cowboys of Color in a historically Black rodeo hot spot like Oklahoma City. Great for any level of experience with horses.
My people are in OKC and I have been many times. I have watched Oklahoma City go from dusty little Americana to a cute ass city. You'll be pleasantly surprised at the city and the fun you'll have.
