This group's focus is to create awareness of the original American Cowboy, their pioneer heritage, their lifestyle and the challenges they face in today's world.

Most people are not aware that the first cattle and the first horses were brought to Florida by Ponce de Leon in 1521, 19 years before Coronado explored what is now known as the American West.

So don't forget your neighbors on the east coast, they are all hard working cowboys as anybody who has been here, including the "Amazing Race" finalist Jet McCoy, can attest!
