ith new attractions and a new way to plan your fun, the Greeley Stampede is encouraging everyone to customize the Stampede exactly to their liking this year
“Live your Stampede experience,” Stampede Marketing Manager Kevin McFarling said. “Because there are so many things going on that you can customize your experience to be whatever you want it to be. We have arena concerts, the Tasman Park stage and the local stage If you’re a foodie, there's the food court and food throughout the park. There’s the family entertainment. There are just so many different ways to make your own Stampede experience.”
A new app, “Greeley Stampede Event Guide,” will
help attendees take more control of their experience this year. The app allows users to buy and store tickets, view the schedule and save events they are interested in and view park rules before showing up
“The purpose of the app is to take the idea of the brochure, but make it into something where somebody could create their own schedule,” McFarling said. “So when you know what days you’re coming out to the Stampede, you can see everything that is going on that day, and you can actually build an itinerary. You can mark what you want to see, and it actually stores it for you.”
The app is available to download on any platform by searching “Greeley Stampede.”
Though not specified in the app, events in the brochure — both the physical and digital
copies — in dark print are included with standard $5 admission into the park.
The Stampede has also partnered with Greeley Hat Works, 2613 8th Ave., Georgia Boys, 2473 W. 28th St., and select King Soopers locations to give out admission coupons, bringing the cost of entry down to just $3.
“There’s so much going on during the Greeley Stampede,” McFarling said. “So we want to try to make it as easy as possible not to miss anything you want to see.”
While several staples such as the arena concerts, rodeos, demolition derby and the Whiskey and Cigars event are returning this year, there are also several new events coming to center stage later this summer
The 3C Roundup Luncheon — the three Cs being
"community," "cowboys" and "connections" — will debut on Friday, June 26 at The DoubleTree Hotel, 919 7th St., with Jerry Diaz and his family.
Diaz has been the driving force behind the Heritage of Mexico rodeo at the Stampede for the past few years. And though the rodeo didn’t work out this year, the Stampede still wanted to give him the platform to teach about his family’s culture.
“You can listen to their story about how they got into the world of rodeo, specifically with the Mexican heritage,” McFarling said. “You can also learn more about what it is that they do.”
Another event new to the Stampede this year is a drone show celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States’ founding, as well as Colorado’s 150th.
“It’s about 500 drones that are going to take off, that will do a series of animations and different things in the sky. So it’s just going to be really neat to watch,” McFarling said.
The drone show starts at 9:30 p.m. Thursday, June 25,
just outside of Aven’s Village on the southeast side of Island Grove.
There will also be "Greeley's Greatest Green Chili Contest" (4 p.m. Sunday, June 28 at the D Saloon), a polo match (1 p.m. Saturday, July 4 in
the arena) and Lucha Libre wrestling matches (starting at 2 p.m. Sunday, July 5 near the Tasman Park Stage)
Also new this year will be an “Energy Zone,” for those who either don’t want to drink or just need a bit of a pick-me-up
“We’ve worked with Pepsi to put together this area that will have Celsius, Alani Nu and Rockstar energy drinks,” McFarling said. “So if that’s more your speed, you’ll have this area where you can do a card. There will be a punch card that, if you fill it out, you’ll be entered to win prizes. Kind of like you would with a beer tour.”

Folks like Jerod Lichtenberg and Tracy Golightly don’t really mind playing in the dirt
But what they really prefer is working in the dirt.
In fact, when it comes to the grounds of the Greeley Stampede Arena, dirt is serious business.
It is also award-winning business
Throughout the years, the dirt that Lichtenberg, Golightly and their grounds teams maintain has won countless awards for being among the best rodeos throughout the country.
What makes the dirt at the Stampede even more impressive: unlike that of many of the other organizations that routinely compete alongside the Stampede for these awards, the dirt at the Stampede isn’t just used for rodeo
While it is fluffed out for rodeos, it is also packed down for concerts, and it is piled around the perimeter for the popular demolition derby
Not to mention, there are plenty of community events that take place on that same dirt when the
Stampede turns the arena back over to the city from late summer through the following spring. That makes the ground crew’s ability to have the dirt in tip-top shape even more impressive when the Stampede kicks off in late June each year.
“The quality is all over the place. It goes up and down,” said Lichtenberg, who is the Stampede’s grounds chairman “We deal with what we have here. Throughout the year, the city uses it for Supercross, flat track (racing) and all the other events they do. … For the most part, it’s the same dirt that has been here since it was brought in 100 years ago. We just turn it, mix it and make it happen.”
The dirt is a mixture of clay, sand and silt
“We’ve done a lot to improve it,” Golightly said “We are a multi-use arena; we can’t keep it pristine for just what we use it for. We keep working it and try to figure it out every year, because every year is different.”
Golightly is the Stampede’s grounds trail boss, a role he has occupied for 10 years. In addition
to that, he has spent 30 years as a wrangler.
Lichtenberg started at the same time, three decades ago, working his way up the ranks within the crew
The Stampede crew works with C&H Solutions, an excavating contractor out of Ault that helps replenish the dirt, add sand and remove dirt, as needed.
In the Stampede’s office at Island Grove Regional Park, the crew has display cases, and boxes, full of awards from the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association and other organizations.
The dirt is often judged by a crew’s ability to provide a surface that effectively satisfies every part of a rodeo.
Barrel racers need dirt patterned a specific way around the barrels so that the dirt isn’t too deep or shallow, and it can’t be too hard or too soft.
Steer wrestlers — also known as “bulldoggers” — need softer dirt for when they propel themselves off their horse onto the arena floor.
Competitors in rough stock
events like bull and bucking horse riding need the dirt packed in more
The grounds are almost puzzle-like in how they are maintained a very specific way in various parts of the arena. It all comes together to create one of the largest and most prestigious rodeos in the United States.
“It’s all about finding that balance between everybody’s needs,” Golightly said. “We live, breathe, smell, touch and feel the dirt all the time, to be honest. I think the term ‘addiction’ covers what we have for this ground very well.”
Lichtenberg added, “You lose a lot of sleep trying to figure out what to do with the dirt. We might be out there until midnight, 1 or 2 in the morning (after rodeos) just looking at it. And somebody might have an idea of, ‘What if we do this?’ And we might go grab a tractor at 1 in the morning.”
One of the few areas outside of the crew’s direct control is the weather While some of the country’s largest rodeos take place indoors, the Stampede’s pro rodeos are fully exposed to all of
the elements.
But Golightly and the rest of the team are always ready to adjust and adapt as suddenly as the Colorado summertime weather can see a sunny, bluebird day give way to a heavy afternoon thunderstorm in a matter of minutes.
“Once we get the dirt set for the rodeo, we have to try to maintain it, day to day, as close to that as possible,” Golightly said. “Mother Nature gives us challenges, and we’re given allowances. If we get
two inches of rain, it can’t be exactly how it was two days ago. It’s just not possible.”
Of course, such work is certainly not a one- or two-person job
Golightly and Lichtenberg have a dedicated team of 12-15 people, with numerous volunteers. They’re always looking for more help
Just like each section of the grounds serves a specific purpose, so does each person within that core team.
“We put people where their
expertise lies,” Lichtenberg said.
“We have a dirt guy on a tractor. We have a water truck guy. I don’t know how he knows water so well.”
It all adds up to a product that is — literally and figuratively — the foundation of almost everything that draws hundreds of thousands of people to the Stampede each year
Whether it is the famed rodeo, the lively concerts or the grand finale, the demolition derby — the dirt is essential. And any ol’ dirt

won’t do
“As long as the people out there in the crowd enjoy it and see it, and it looks great — it doesn’t matter how chaotic it was, we did our job,” Lichtenberg said. “That’s the most fulfilling thing, to see everybody going home talking about how great the rodeo was, how great the concert was, how great the park was. And it’s very fulfilling when the contestants come back year after year and say how much they love it here.”

Certain Greeley Stampede food vendors will offer a “Fourth of July Family Pack” this year to provide an affordable food option for families of four
More than 32 vendors, including six new names, will offer a variety of food at locations throughout the Stampede Including parking, entry into the park can cost a family of four more than $30 before reaching any of the concerts, carnival rides, rodeo shows or the many other activities at the annual event, which runs from June 24 to July 5 this year
Vendor coordinator Joey Bernatow estimates meals at the Stampede for a family of four could add up to about $50
“I would estimate that the average food item at our event lands somewhere between $10-$20 depending on the size and value of the item. There are outliers, which are cheaper and more expensive, but we try to keep prices consistent through-
out the park,” Bernatow said in an email.
To help lessen this burden on families, Bernatow and other Stampede officials are encouraging vendors to offer Fourth of July Family Packs.
“The Fourth of July Pack is a promotional event, where we challenge food vendors to create a food package deal that will feed a family of four on a budget,” Bernatow said in an email. “We do not require all of our vendors to participate in this promotion, but we try to encourage as many as we can because it will drive guest attendance and help families afford food for everyone.”
This pack will only be offered on the Fourth of July, and pricing will be determined by the vendors, so prices may vary Bernatow said two vendors signed up for the promotion early. Based on their proposed family packs, he estimates the promotion will save visitors up to $20 on food.
“We have already had two vendors submit their details for their deal, Corndoggies, and The Chocolate Chip Cookie Company,” Bernatow said in an email. “The vendors take items that they would normally sell separately, and combine several of them with a discount, such as four corn dogs and a bucket of fries, for $15 cheaper than if you bought the items separately.”
A list of participating ven-

dors and their family packs will be posted to the Greeley Stampede website as the event approaches.
Other deals will be posted on the Stampede website as the event draws closer. The Papa John’s Family Pack, for example, bundles four PRCA ProRodeo tickets of your choice (excluding the finals) in North or South grandstands, a one-day parking pass and a voucher for one large one-topping pizza from Papa John’s at the event as well as a coupon for 25% off Greeley Stampede merchandise

From sunscreen to concealed carry, the Greeley Stampede has many
The Stampede will use an AI weapons detection St system for the first time this year
by andrea grajeda gra
From helping little kids reunite with their parents after they wandered too far to preparing for possible evacuations due to inclement weather or other threats, the Greeley Stampede partners with many local agencies to prepare for any dangers.
In keeping up with nationwide safety standards for large events, the Stampede has introduced a weapons detection system powered by artificial intelligence, according to Greeley Police Special Operations Commander Matt Patella.
“Because obviously, really one of our greatest concerns is bringing a weapon inside the park,” he said.
Stampede marketing manager Kevin McFarling and security chairman Jon Patton said guests will simply walk through the system, removing the need to empty their pockets or take off belts while passing through security. If the system flags
someone, security will pull that person aside and ask a few questions, using extra security screenings as needed.
The clear bag policy, which was updated in 2024, is also still in place. The policy requires guests to place personal items in a clear bag or in a small bag for entry into any Stampede event. Backpacks and large
purses are not allowed into the Stampede, with the exception of medical equipment.
Since the Stampede is allowing for concealed carry, McFarling said guests who choose to carry will have to show proper documentation to prove they are authorized to carry a firearm before entering.
Coordination and teamwork across multiple agencies is crucial, according to Greeley Emergency Management Director Peter Perez. The Greeley Office of Emergency Management works to make sure all safety stakeholders know where to be and how to respond, Perez said. That includes working with the public works department to coordinate traffic and parking, identifying the best location for the fire department to get their trucks to the area and ensuring there are enough police officers to staff the event while not neglecting patrolling the rest of the city
With such a large event set in the summer, and with people tending to focus on drinking to have a good time instead of drinking for hydration, Perez said the Stampede tends to see a lot of people with heat
exhaustion who are sent to the hospital. While that gets people the medical attention they need, it can also be a financial burden.
This year, a first aid team will be stationed at the Stampede at 14th Avenue and D Street intersection, near the petting zoo. The first aid team will be able to treat minor injuries on-site, and help people who
maybe just need to drink some water and lie down in the shade under medical supervision. But anyone having a medical emergency should still call 911 Standby medical staff will also be at the event.
The Stampede also offers many ways for guests to cool off. There will be a water bottle filling station near the Buckle Club, three free sunscreen dispensers, shading near the food court and a relaxation station with air conditioning
Patella said safety stakeholders run through worse-case scenarios so they can be prepared for any dangers. For the most part, police and security have to deal with heat exhaustion or helping reunite kids with their parents, he said. Parents and children can approach an officer or anyone wearing a red
Stampede volunteer shirt to get help to find their family Summer in Colorado also means some less than desirable weather. Stampede officials monitor the weather closely and quickly communicate with attendees about evacuation routes or where to take shelter. This also lets vendors take precautionary steps, such as bringing down large amplifiers during high winds.
“What we plan for is how do
we get a hold of the public and tell them what they need to do,” Perez said.
Emergency notifications for the Stampede will also be pushed out by the CodeRED system, the county’s emergency notification system. People can sign up for notifications at accountportal.onsolve.net/ weldcountyco/contact.
