\u00a0 \u00a0 Plans are continuing to come together for the City of Lockhart\u2019s beloved Chisholm Trail Homecoming Rodeo (CTHR) weekend, slated for June 12-13.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Last week, the Lockhart Chamber of Commerce was happy to collaborate and oversee two of the most cherished traditions, the Queen\u2019s Court and the annual Homecoming Parade.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 The agreement between the CTHR and the Chamber ensures that two long-standing community events, both deeply rooted in Lockhart\u2019s Western heritage, will carry on as part of the 2026 City of Lockhart Chisholm Trail Homecoming Rodeo festivities.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 Under the new partnership, the Chamber will manage the organization and coordination of the Queen\u2019s Court, a tradition that celebrates young women who represent the spirit, leadership, and Western pride of the community.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 In addition, the Chamber will help organize the annual parade, a highlight of the rodeo weekend that brings together local businesses, schools, organizations, and families in a colorful display of hometown pride.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Details regarding the selection process for the Queen\u2019s Court, important dates, and parade participation guidelines will be released by the Chamber at a later date.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 The Queen\u2019s Court and the Parade have long been cornerstones of the City of Lockhart CTHR, drawing generations of families to the historic downtown square and rodeo arena each year. From decorated floats and marching bands to waving royalty in Western attire, the events serve as a reminder of Lockhart\u2019s enduring connection to its ranching and agricultural roots.<\/p>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 Although the CTHR will be allowing food and vendor booths to set up on both days, they do want to stress neither the CTHR nor the Chamber will be hosting a music or carnival atmosphere, as in years past during the former 53-year-old tradition of the Chisholm Trail Roundup festival.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u201cThe Chamber is only facilitating the Queen\u2019s Court and parade this year in regard to the rodeo weekend, but have other things in the works for a later date, possibly,\u201d stated Megan Carvajal, CEO of Lockhart Chamber of Commerce.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 City leaders and rodeo representatives expressed enthusiasm about the continued partnership, emphasizing the importance of preserving traditions that bring the community together.<\/p>\n
