Lewis Events had the honor of being part of a fundraiser for a Chicago police and fire rehabilitation organization. We performed two shows and taught panning for gold, trick roping, and virtual steer roping.
Thanks for allowing us to be part of this important event and thanks to our first responders.
In late July, Lewis Events traveled north to Chico, California for a western-themed birthday celebration, picnic style. The host pulled out all the stops and made it an unforgettable experience for the 300+ guests dressed in their best frontier duds.
Chico Catering did a fabulous job BBQing a western feast and the local Elks lodge was an ideal location for the celebration. Guests were entertained by a trick roping, whip cracking, gun spinning, and square dancing showcase all kept moving by the cowboy DJ/MC. Non-stop activities included panning for gold, virtual cow milking, corn hole tournament, calf & trick roping lessons, virtual cow branding, corn husk doll making, nerf shooting gallery, water slides, and inflatable games.
Not far from Chico at this same time, the Dixie fire was in its early stages and the plume of smoke could be seen from our site. Nearby, the fire fighting teams were staging their equipment and our hotel parking lot was filled with Cal Fire trucks. Thanks, first responders!
Calico Days, an amazing annual event, held at Calico Ghost Town is a great place to spin the ropes and entertain the crowds! The Lewis family has been part of this exciting event on and off for about the last 15 years, performing trick roping, gun spinning, whip cracking, and taking photos with the guests. Whether you are cheering on the burro run, learning new skills from the blacksmith, tapping your foot to some bluegrass, or exploring one of the many unique shops, it’s a memorable adventure for the entire family. We’ll keep on roping and hope to see you next year.

Lewis Events recently had the honor of providing entertainment for the residents and guests at the Veterans Home of California.
Guests had the chance to strike it rich in the gold panning activity, cheer for the trick roping stunt show and learn how to spin a genuine western trick rope.
Some of the cowboys and cowgirls even got a chance to make friends with the four-legged, furry, special guest.
What do you do when you want to host your company’s western picnic on-site at your own facility. Easy! You transform your location into the Wild West. 
Lewis Events teamed up with Cafe N’ Stuff Catering to make wild west magic happen for a ton of folks at a location with acres of indoor space.
And when we said acres of space we weren’t kidding. So with some areas masked off, we concentrated the colorful decorating in key areas of the event space.
When the guests were finished eating Cafe N’ Stuff’s amazing food, we kept the crowd entertained with a wild west trick roping and stunt show, a cornhole tournament, virtual calf roping, trick roping and, line dancing instruction.
Lewis Events magically transforms spaces into amazing theme parties for small intimate gatherings all the way up to grand celebrations in Southern California and Salt LakeCity/Utah Valley.

Performers will lead guests through the great plains cattle drive era, into the 1849 Gold Rush, one of the most fascinating periods in United States history.
The 5th grade Colonial Experience will take students back in time for a visit to the early American colonies. The colonists’ mindset will be portrayed, daily life in the colonies, the westward expansion, patriot hero showcases, student participation, and Bessie the virtual cow are a few of the show highlights.

Lewis Events received a request for a trick roping cowboy to perform for a western-themed celebration at an exclusive private resort in Montana. So when the time arrived, Cowboy Brett flew from Salt Lake City into Bozeman, Montana, picked up a rental car, and began his drive south towards Yellowstone. He said that as he drove, every mile became more beautiful with lush green pastures and horizons of towering mountain ranges.
Closer . . . Closer . . . and then.
The event location was stunning. A beautiful alpine setting surrounded by tall pine trees, breathtaking vistas, blue skies, and a gentle breeze. It wasn’t long before the set-up was complete and the crowds began to arrive for a real, old-west picnic and evening of fun.
Guests were greeted by Cowboy Brett in full western gear spinning his trusty trick rope. As the party progressed, Brett showcased a variety of trick roping stunts with his lasso. Adults and younger cowpokes were able to get their hands on a genuine trick rope and try their hand at mastering their own roping skills. Brett brought along his virtual steer and gave everyone a chance to rope the cow with a real, old fashioned lariat. The day ended with a corral full of new Montana cow folk, ready to hit the cattle drive trail.
