Rockwall County, Texas – Mark your calendars for a day of Western‑themed family fun and community spirit. The 7th Annual Rockwall County Sheriff’s Posse Round‑Up will roll into the Historic Downtown Rockwall Square on Saturday, November 14, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Celebrating Heritage and Supporting Students
The Round‑Up is a beloved local tradition that showcases the county’s rich Western heritage while raising money for a worthy cause. Proceeds will fund scholarships for local students participating in 4‑H, FFA and other agricultural programs, helping them pursue higher education and careers in agriculture and related fields.
What to Expect
Visitors can look forward to a lively downtown square filled with live music, food vendors, children’s activities and a variety of Western‑themed attractions. The event is free and open to the public, encouraging families to enjoy the sights, sounds and spirit of the Old West together.
Community Involvement
“We’re proud to host this event each year as a way to celebrate our community, honor our heritage, and invest in the next generation of agricultural leaders,” said Chris Knox, event coordinator with the Rockwall County Sheriff’s Posse. The Posse is currently seeking sponsorships and vendor participants to help make the day even more memorable.

Why It Matters
Beyond the entertainment, the Round‑Up reinforces the county’s commitment to supporting youth education in agriculture—a sector that remains vital to the local economy and the nation’s food supply.
