Per [ngdiscussion.net]:
"The C&TS date was moved forward from Labor Day primarily to avoid a conflict with this
year's Narrow Gauge Convention in St. Louis, and also because area ranchers and hands us-

is usually a fairly quiet time in Chama, it made more sense to move the date forward into August
rather than backward into September. So August 27-31 it is. (Note added Monday & Tuesday
events. And don't be surprised if there's some kind of warm-up on Thursday evening, August 26 ..."
