Go Texan Day

• As part of the entry submission, you must upload a video, 60 seconds or less in length, and it should display highlights from your Go Texan Day event. The video can be footage of the event, a video montage or a slideshow of photos.
  
  This video must be uploaded to YouTube, set to “Public” viewable, and the link copied and pasted to the Go Texan Day Contest submission page.
  
  One entry per organization.
  
  
• A panel of judges will evaluate all entries based on:
  • How well the event embraces Western heritage
  • Degree of organizational participation
  • How the organization raises awareness of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo
  • Creativity and uniqueness of activities
  • Overall quality and presentation of the video
    
    
• Judges will select the top two videos from each category that will be eligible for the public judging.

Your Go Texan Day event can be simple or creative and include activities such as:

• Encouraging employees to dress Western (including jeans, boots, hats and other Western attire). You could even add a Best Western Dressed contest to your event for added flare.
• Decorating with Western themed décor such as a Western display in the lobby or a fun door decorating contest between employees.
• Celebrating with an employee barbecue luncheon or a competitive cook-off (chili, beans, salsa, etc.)
• Relaxing with country and Western music or dancing at your event.
