You cowpokes * are invited to this year’s big summer dance party event. 

Plan on spending the better part of day so that you can enjoy the afternoon BBQ and evening dancing.  We’ll hang out and play until we get hungry and fire up the BBQ around 6 pm.  The 1200 sq ft dance hall is open, so figure on bringing your boots and hat for some cowboy dancing that night.  Again, this year, there is a limit of 7 to the number of clothes changes you city cowboys can bring.

Please bring your favorite dish to share (POTLUCK!!!).  I'll have the basic starter goodies of chicken, dogs, and pop.  If you drink, please be responsible and have a designated driver if you're headed home afterwards.  I'll be more than glad to conduct sobriety tests on anyone even remotely looking like he can be take advantage of.  Those cowboys clearly not able to run fast enough will be put into the slammer, where the things that'll make Lon Mabon stay awake at night may come true.

If you wish to spend the night, bring along your tent for some cowboy camping out back.  Can't do trailers, so all you girls will have to rough it.  We’ll have a cowboy breakfast the next morning (figure on late morning).  Let me know in advance if you're up for this, so I'll know the magnitude of the effort to whip up a mess of cowboy grub and coffee.

Please car pool if you possible can.  Parking is always a problem with all those big 1 ton rigs you guys drive.  Dogs are best left at home as they can't be running around amongst the guests.  However, if you must, I do have 2 large kennels that they can safely be at home and run around (additional note about dogs by popular demand... if it is likely to be barking a lot, don't even think about bringing it as it is very disruptive to the guests).

 You can find the Charlie Horse Ranch at 36060 S Dickey Prairie Rd,  Molalla, OR  97038  503-759-3040

* Over 21 adults only crowd only, please.
