Dear Vendor,

Emerald City Enterprises is thrilled to host the Black Heritage Rodeo of Fort Bend on February 21, 2026 at the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds.

The Rodeo’s mission is to highlight and celebrate the rich Black cowboy legacy of Fort Bend County and introduce it to a new generation of cowboys and cowgirls. This full-day event will feature rodeo competitions with prize pots, slack events, food and marketplace vendors, entertainment, and activities for young participants.

Attached you will find the vendor application, hold harmless form, and temporary food permit information (if applicable). We are confident that the Black Heritage Rodeo will be a prosperous event for participating vendors. To secure your space in our food court, please complete the attached forms and return them by 5:00 PM on January 30, 2026.

I will be your primary contact for all preparations before and during the event. I will check in periodically throughout the day and will also be available onsite.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email or phone. Thank you, and I look forward to collaborating with you!

Sincerely,

Constance Greenwood Bowie
