How does the Curve Cowboy Reunion Operate and how are the proceeds of the Curve Cowboy Reunion used?
The Curve Cowboy Reunion is a non-profit (IRS 501 (C) 3) organization. A great deal of time, effort, and personal expense goes into hosting this event for the benefit of the attendees of the Curve Cowboy Reunion. All funds collected by the reunion, via donations, reunion fees, and merchandise, are used to operate the reunion for the benefit of all who attend and as an initial seed funding for the following year.

The goal is to have a great reunion and to walk away with great memories.
