The Border Queen to celebrate 150 years

Caldwell, Kansas—The Border Queen—was established in 1871 because of its location along the Chisholm Trail. The town will be celebrating its 150th birthday May 7 and 8 with many activities, including a western art show, buffalo soldier camp, gunfights and saloon show, opera house shows, tours and more.

A cattle drive from Pond Creek, Indian Territory, May 3 to 8 will allow participants to ride the old Chisholm Trail, experience authentic chuck wagon food and sleep under the stars.
