Local characters stage a gunfight at high noon and donate the proceeds to the Shriners Hospital for Children. They're available afterward for photographs.
A group of wild burros visits daily to munch on carrots that local shopkeepers are all too happy to sell. Note that despite the fact that they roam main street and will walk right up to passersby, these are in fact wild burros and will kick, bite, and otherwise behave like wild animals if they feel uncomfortable. Don't feed them anything other than carrots, don't feed them outside of the town limits, and keep dogs away from them as the burros won't distinguish a dog from a coyote and will attempt to kick and/or stomp it.
