The Maverick Club Room
The Maverick Club was formed by fifty prominent citizens of the Village of Cimarron in
1922. The Club's purpose was to pursue social, civic and educational activities while
avoiding political and religious viewpoints. The name "Maverick" was adopted as being
appropriate to a group of "strays which neither the Rotary, Kiwanis nor the Lions could brand
under their rules, yet which desire to follow the spirit and object of such clubs."
There are no dues for membership and once a man was invited to join, he was a member for
life. The Maverick Club has sponsored Cimarron's 4th of July Rodeo since
1923- the oldest continuously operating rodeo in the United States.
This small room has one double bed and is designed for one or two guests. There is a full
bath with tub and shower. All of our towels are the highest grade - thick and plush. Color
cable television, phone, in-room full size coffee maker with complimentary coffee, and alarm
clocks are amenities included for our guest's convenience.
NEW IN SUMMER 2007 - Wi-Fi internet for our guests!
The Maverick Way
A maverick’s never worn a brand, At least not one that shows. He’s free to travel where he will, The trail is one he chose.
The tough times make them buckle up And bow their necks and pull. They never lay their shovel down Until their bucket’s full.
Remember, nothing ever grows Till someone plants a seed. The scenery changes only for The steer that’s in the lead.
Excerpted from Red Steagall’s (Official Cowboy Poet of Texas) book Ride for the Brand.
