The Bush Library Education Department will be hosting two free videoconferences entitled “El Vaquero”-a storytelling event for grades 4-8. Angel Vigil will describe the Spanish/Mexican cowboy’s role in the origins and development of cowboy culture in the American West. He tells exciting stories about the working vaquero and does trick roping masterfully. Registration will close Friday, May 7. Registration form is located at the bottom of this post.

The program will be available 3 ways. Please complete the registration form for any of these 3 methods!

• By Videoconference (you must be a member of your region’s videoconference network service)
• By Live stream (we have a limit of 100 computers that can connect statewide-please combine classes if possible-we will inform you if we are over the limit)
• By viewing the recording after the event via an internet stream

Please note: to be considered an “interactive” site, you must choose the videoconference option and you must submit up to 5 questions on the registration form by April 30. Have your questions ready before filling out the registration form. All interactive sites will be notified of their questions chosen by May 7.   Most sites will be “view only”.
