The City of Ocala Recreation and Parks Department will once again, host the annual Cattle Drive and Cowboy Round-Up from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on February 11.

Everyone is invited and encouraged to line the streets to watch the unique spectacle of cowboys drive the cracker cattle through downtown Ocala, so dust off your cowboy hat and shine up your boots for Ocala's annual Cattle Drive and Cowboy Round-Up is heading to town.
Plus, you don't eat to miss the Marion Rotary Duck Derby taking place at 1 PM on Lake Tuscawilla.
Rubber ducks will race across the pond and if your lucky duck is one of the first to cross the line you will win a cash prize! Proceeds benefit the Discovery Center.
