Historical<br />

reenactment at<br />

the main stage<br />

at Sacred Oaks<br />

venue<br />

Historical reenactment of<br />

the signing of the Texas<br />

Declaration of<br />

Independence<br />

This time we stayed at the main stage where the<br />

reenactment took place -- they wanted everyone<br />

to see this one so it was at the most central<br />

location on the <strong>ranch</strong>. Very educational, looked<br />

back at all the battles that were fought and lives<br />

lost so that Texas could claim independence<br />

from Mexico. This segment ended with the<br />

crowd singing “Texas Our Texas” together,<br />

which was a great finale for the day.<br />

4:00 Event ends Guests leave the property Was very satisfied with the event. Felt that we<br />

had had some great food, heard some good<br />

music, and had been re-educated about our<br />

Texas history and the hard road our state had to<br />

take in order to gain its independence. Was very<br />

excited that so much money was collected for<br />

CASA and made us feel like we were part of<br />

something very worthy while still having fun.<br />

Enjoyed seeing Rosewater Ranch. Was very<br />

impressed with its venues and its vendors that<br />

are available for parties. Will definitely consider<br />

holding an event at this Ranch. This was a great<br />

day with the family!<br />
