Cowtown Days is STILL ON! 🎉

We’re proud to announce that Ellsworth Cowtown Days is alive and well—and sticking to its roots! After some recent changes and conversations in the community, we want to clear the air:

✅ Cowtown Days isn’t going anywhere.
We’ve created this new page to keep the original Cowtown Days tradition alive—celebrating Ellsworth’s rich western heritage right here in downtown Ellsworth, KS.

🤝 This year, Cowtown Days will be aligned with the El-Kan Western Riders Rodeo, taking place August 15–16, 2025—so you can expect a weekend full of community spirit, rodeo action, and good old-fashioned fun.

🎉 The 2025 Cowtown Parade is ON!
📍 Saturday, August 16 at 11:00 a.m.
The parade will start at the triangle at 8th & Douglas, travel down Douglas Ave, and end at Cowtown Plaza—where you’ll find vendors, food, and family-friendly activities waiting for you!

We’ll be sharing more details soon—so give us a follow, invite your friends, and get ready to celebrate Ellsworth the way we always have.
