Ranch Roundup named top charitable music event by TCMA

WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) – The Texas County Music Association recognizes those who work hard alongside the artists to make an effective impact on today's Texas music, and one Wichita Falls event was among those honored. North Texas Rehab's Ranch Roundup was named the top Charitable Music Event of the Year by the TCMA on Thursday, June 12, at the Rhinestone Saloon in the Fort Worth Stockyards. Regan Nabors, Director of Marketing and Development for North Texas Rehab, said everyone is really honored and proud to be recognized by their peers. 'It was a great night and we are excited to bring this hardware back to Wichita Falls,' Nabors added. TCMA President Linda Wilson said these awards are 'incredibly unique and special' because they are only voted on by TCMA members and industry stakeholders. 'It's our goal to let these individuals and entities that work so hard alongside the artists to know that the industry is paying attention – and grateful,' Wilson said. The Texas Ranch Roundup is the 'original' event designed to replicate the big cattle roundups of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Since its inception in 1981, the Texas Ranch Roundup has raised more than $4 million for the North Texas Rehabilitation Center in Wichita Falls, the West Texas Rehabilitation Center in Abilene, and the West Texas Boys Ranch in San Angelo. The 44th Annual Ranch Roundup will be held on July 18 and 19 at Kay Yeager Coliseum and the MPEC, featuring Josh Weathers, a fellow Texan, as the performer. Tickets can be purchased at or the MPEC Box Office, located at 1000 5th Street. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

The Texas Ranch Roundup is the 'original' event designed to replicate the big cattle roundups of the late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1981, it was the first of the hundreds of ranch rodeos throughout North America. The first event committee determined the participating ranches would be full-time, historic Texas cattle ranches. The participants would be only owners, full-time hands, and immediate family members. They also determined that the ranch families should be involved outside the arena to showcase real ranch life and the talents that exist in the families. The committee also developed the rules largely followed in ranch rodeos today. The committee's voting members are the designated representatives from each participating ranches. While many rules have been tweaked over the years, the event has remained true to its core principles. The legacy of the Texas ranches, the integrity of the participants, and the ranches' dedication to the benefiting charities have made the event successful beyond the dreams of the founding group.
