P. & The Recycles with Boot Scootin’ old western music & Checz Waltz’s, a chuck wagon breakfast (Saturday morning), our very own Horse Platoon from the 1st Cavalry Division, Cow’ographers (our Texas Ambassadors), a pie eating contest, ferris wheel, cake walk, your very own special Ogletree Gap T-shirts (and special fest pin for your collection!), Ole-time storytelling, dominoe & checker tournaments, cowboy church, BBQ cook-off, native American demonstrations, pioneer demonstrations ... the list goes on!

A new attraction in 2007 was the San Antonio Living History Buffalo Soldiers Encampment. What a demonstration!

Ogletree Gap Heritage Festival 2007 marked the 7th anniversary of this three-day showcase of Copperas Cove's multicultural heritage and the vibrant history of the area. The 2007 Festival was a big success because of the committee that organized and ran it, and featured more displays, food vendors, and excitement than in previous years.

Thanks so much to all who volunteered to bring Ogletree Gap Fest to Copperas Cove, and especially our Sponsors. The Fest was very relaxed, fun, and an educational and family oriented event - the children (and all) that attended had a great time!

Mark your calendars now for Ogletree Gap 2008 - October 17 thru 19.
See you then!
