The people who live in Cheyenne County still embrace many of the pioneer values of their ancestors-independence, hard work, pride in one's accomplishments, common sense and the like. Many of them farm, or ranch, or work for one of the counties many oil and gas ventures. Whatever the pursuit, it's done with a powerful determination balanced with a healthy respect for the land.

Cheyenne County offers what you would call wholesome living. The stands are packed every year at the Cheyenne County Fairgrounds for various rodeos and western events. In the town of Cheyenne Wells, the three softball fields are in use every night of the summer. And people never miss the Cheyenne Wells Annual Tumbleweed Festival with its games, crafts, sidewalk sales and all-night softball tournament.
