As summer comes to a close, Labor Day marks an opportunity for many families across Central Texas to spend time together before they get back to their busy weekly schedules of work and school. Here are some great Labor Day events in Texas to enjoy during your long weekend:
Oatmeal Fest 2019
What began as a community spoof on chili cook-offs, the annual Oatmeal Fest has become a true spectacle, attracting communities from across Central Texas to watch the parade, eat amazing food, and listen to live music. They can also sign up for the Run For Your Oats 5k race! More information can be found at http://oatmealfestival.org/.
World Championship BBQ Goat Cookoff
A Texas tradition since 1974, feast your eyes on the fiery feud between 206 cook teams as they sizzle, smoke, and slice their way to victory and the esteemed title of champion (at least until next year)! It’s a spectacle for the whole family, and will include many family activities, beer and wine tasting, and a live concert at the finale following a full day of BBQ and fun!

The Annual Sorghum Harvest is a time of excitement and celebration at the Brazos de Dios homestead, located in the thick forest of the fertile river valley north of Waco.
