Membership Information
The cowboys and stuntmen who started Chuck Wagon Trailers
wanted to preserve the old ways.
Most had ridden the trails we now dream of and they saw the clouds of
change....knowing
that no more could they ride with the trail herds and join the round-ups as in
days gone by.
Most of them are now gone. Their history and their stories still live on, at our
round-ups,
through legend, word-of-mouth, cowboy poetry and recorded history.
It also lives on through our authentic chuck wagon, constructed and purchased
by a San Fernando Valley rancher in 1887.
We still gather around the chuck wagon at our round-ups and
meet old pals or form new relationships.
Together we relive the memory of the men who knew the trails of the chuck wagon.
Come join us....and help to preserve a bit of the old west.
Through active membership, you will be able to participate in cookin' the way
they used to
go on trail rides, sit around a campfire and learn the old ways.
Our Chuck Wagon is in pretty good shape, but we hope to
refurbish
and renew some parts before entering the wagon into parades.
All of this takes manpower and money, so please join up and support a part of
your history.
