​

Airpower Foundation is proud to support the Split Oak Ranch Patriot Round Up!!  This year's event will honor and support the POW and MIAs from the Vietnam War.

​

This will be a fun and exciting event with a true Team Roping Event, concert by Austin Allsup and dinner for our POW and other honored guests.  

​

Split Oak Ranch is a fantastic venue just a short drive north of DFW in Marietta, Oklahoma.  The working ranch is on 300 acres of beautiful land with the Red River right in the back yard.  Every place you look it has picturesque views.  

​

As with all of our Sky Ball events, we want to give our POW and other honored guests the most wonderful experience to show our appreciation for them.  As a result, we are looking for volunteers to help with the following parts of the event - transportation between DFW to Marietta on Saturday and Sunday, food service, bar service  and tear down.  

 

Or just make it a day trip and come out on Saturday to help setup, watch an exciting concert celebrating our military heroes and then help up tear down and clean up the event.

​

Can't assist on the day of the event??  Come out on one of the Saturdays in October to help with the rodeo qualifying events!
