I think that is what its called. I went to this a couple of times when i was a kid and would love to take my kids. Does anyone in sw mo know if its still going. Think its located between Joplin and Carthage and i think it has a 3 day event in August. If you know anything about it let me know.
Sorry if this is in the wrong spot did not know were to post.

Sounds a lot like "Hootin and Hollarin Days" in Gainesville. September 16 - 18 this year.

We hope to drive up from Houston for this year's event. Planning to meet some of the new neighbors!
