Steer your way to River Breaks Ranch, a family operation that has been in existence for the past 95 years running as a working commercial ranch that produces wheat, cotton, and oil while raising cattle and horses and producing energy from both wind and solar sources. There you will discover that the highly ambitious goal to diversify the operation and allow tourists to experience the ranch in its true form has been realized.    Upon arriving, you will welcomed by “The Barn,” a 5,000 square foot party facility revealing a massive 2,000 square foot screened in porch ushering you into the main dinning area and a beautiful setting to host private parties, conferences, reunions, and weddings. River Breaks further enhances your stay with wagon rides, cattle stampedes, horse racing and team roping making it all unforgettable. 

Touted as the place in town where more than imaginations run wild, the Amarillo Zoo captures the drama and beauty of the animal kingdom for kids of all ages.  The sprawling 15-acre site is located in Thompson Park and features over 60 species of animals from all over the world. When you and your family walk through the attractions at the zoo, you'll notice that the design of each exhibit invites both fun and discovery. And since the zoo is located in Thompson Park, plan to spend the rest of the day in the park enjoying a picnic, a game of tennis, a refreshing swim or brisk walk on one of the many walking trails.

If you're looking for a fun, inexpensive way to play golf or just work on improving your game, head to the Preston West Par 3 Golf Course. Touted as a great value for the money, this course features some holes with water hazards, and others with strategically designed sand traps and deceptively inviting greens that will have your shot turn quickly if you're not careful. Many players agree that the Preston is the perfect place to go to work on your short game.
