The National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame is introducing a new video conference,
Untangling Cattle Brands
Grades 3-12
$100 per site

Branding iron

The history of branding is unique on its own, and is also tied to the cattle industry in the West. Beginning with the elaborate brands of the early Spanish cowmen to the brands we use today, this program explores all facets of branding and makes connections to today's "current branding" that students see routinely . Students will learn the history and the symbols used in branding as well as design a brand of their own. This program is a collaborative educational effort with the Texas A & M Animal Science Department.

*Program times can be adjusted to class schedules .
