Empire Ranch Roundup Open House

I never have to look to hard to find something to do in Arizona. We have such a vast inventory of Historical Places that many are filled up on weekends with events. One such event happening this coming up weekend on Saturday October 24, from 10am to 4pm . The Historic Empire Ranch Roundup and Open House held in Sonoita Arizona.

The theme for this event is "Cowboy Country at Empire Ranch" When you visit the web page; http://www.empireranchfoundation.org/Rndup.htm make sure you scroll down and check out their links to amazing sites full of information about Arizona History.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Empire Ranch Foundation has done a really good job of defining and reaching their objectives.

The landscape around Sonoita is just beautiful. Rolling grassy hills are splattered with scrub oak trees and spotted with ranches. The drive down is very enjoyable.

  1. Hey there. I was there at the Open House on Saturday. I'm just getting ready to publish my blog post about it. LOVE that place! We probably walked right by each other there...I live 10 miles north of the ranch, our property used to be part of the ranch in it's heyday. Stop by my blog and say hi when you get a chance!
