GREELEY, Colo. — The Greeley Stampede officially kicks off Wednesday.
The 102nd annual summer celebration begins with a longhorn drive in Greeley.
The drive will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday in downtown Greeley starting between the Greeley Chamber of Commerce and the Train Museum.
The Stampede said the longhorn cattle will also be available for viewing daily at 6 p.m. at the Livestock Barn and will also lead the Greeley Stampede's Independence Day Parade on Thursday, July 4.
The parade of longhorn cattle are presented by Wells Ranch.
The Greeley Stampede opens Wednesday and runs through Sunday, July 7. This extends the Greeley Stampede past its traditional Independence Day closing date.
