Kiwanis’ Family Fun Days: Legends of the West with the Singing Cowboy

This program is thanks to the generous funding of the Kiwanis Club of Carefree. The "Singing Cowboy" and his trusty steed Dusty join the Cave Creek Museum to lead our guests in singing songs and telling stories of yore. And no doubt Dusty will be ready to show off how he is the smartest horse in all of Cave Creek! You be smart and pre-register, so Dusty'll know your coming! He LOVES an audience!

Kiwanis' Family Fun Days is FREE, thanks to the generosity of the Kiwanis Club of Carefree. Christmas for Arizona's homesteaders was very much "do-it-yourself".
