Waynoka Snake Hunt


What is the Waynoka Snake Hunt?

It is the BIGGEST, WILDEST, WEEKEND in the state with a little something for everyone. It began in the 40s as gathering of area ranchers who banded together for the purpose of thinning out a critter they saw as a threat to their cattle, the Western Diamondback Rattlesnake. Over the years it became a ritual and a club was formed to organize the event into a festival that they hoped would draw thousands of visitors in an effort to boost the local economy. It worked and that club today is known as the Waynoka Saddle Club.
