When we think about Christmas, it is easy to get wrapped up in thinking about gifts.

The opportunity to bring cowboy poetry/music to the Coleman Theater felt like a gift to us.

Cowboy poetry/music has not historically been performed in the four-state area at the same level and frequency that it is in other parts of the country. We hope the chance to experience authentic cowboy entertainment felt like a gift to you.

We are thankful for every single sponsor and every one of you that purchased a ticket. You allowed us to give a gift to the Children’s Advocacy Center of Ottawa County. We know they are already putting it to good use in the community.

It's never to early to start thinking about next year, but for now we are enjoying the gift of pictures that carry memories of a wonderful evening of cowboy entertainment!

Happy Thanksgiving from the Diary of a Dayworker crew!

We are thankful for the performers that came, the volunteers who donated their time, those of you who bought tickets, the donation we were able to make to the Children’s Advocacy Center of Ottawa County, and the great 2025 sponsors who made it all possible.

Eat your turkey (or better yet, beef), spend time with your family, and listen to some cowboy poetry or some cowboy music. Happy Thanksgiving!

We will be posting the official event photos from DuMond Photography in the weeks to come. For now, enjoy this picture and post from Brenn Hill. We had an amazing crowd, wonderful hosts at the Coleman Theatre Beautiful, and took the first steps in growing and promoting cowboy music and poetry in the four-states. Thank you!

Congratulations and many thanks to Kye and Kasey Rieff on a successful first year event; The Diary of a Dayworkin’ Cowboy… at one of the most beautiful theaters I’ve ever seen - The Coleman in Miami, OK.
Honored to be a part of it ! Along with Jay Snider, Matt Robertson, Kye Rieff, and Jake Riley. Most of all thanks to all who attended. Here’s to many more years of Cowboy Culture in NE Oklahoma.
