In celebration of America 250, Goodnight Ranch is hosting a FREE program that explores the legacy of Charles and Mary Ann Goodnight. Their vision, generosity, and resilience helped shape not only the town of Goodnight but also other pioneer communities in the Texas Panhandle. Come hear how they helped other Texans build the state and nation we call home today. The program will be followed by a self-guided house tour. Do not forget to wear red, white, and blue!

This event is presented as part of Texas America250, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
