Held annually in Cody, Wyoming, these events feature top-tier bull riders competing against some of the most aggressive and powerful bulls in the world, with the goal of staying atop for a full 8 seconds.

This charming event allows children to participate in the celebration, with local kids donning creative costumes and decorating bikes, wagons, and floats. It’s a heartwarming event that emphasizes community spirit and provides a fun and engaging experience for families to enjoy together.

The main parade takes place on July 3rd and July 4th at 9:30 AM, winding its way down Sheridan Avenue, the heart of Cody’s downtown district. Visitors can expect a vibrant mix of traditional Western themes, modern-day elements, and family-friendly entertainment, creating an unforgettable experience for attendees of all ages.

If you would like to put up a flag in honor of a person or just to contribute to this truly patriotic cause, visit https://codyheritagemuseum.org/ to learn more about the application process. Flags will be up from Flag day (June 14th) to July 1st or July 4th depending on the location.

The Heart Mountain Wyoming Foundation proposes to bring, Defining Courage, a powerful immersive stage production by renowned news anchor, David Ono, to Park County. The production brings to life the overlooked stories of Japanese American soldiers who served with extraordinary valor during World War II, despite their families being unjustly incarcerated in camps across the country, including Heart Mountain, Wyoming. As we approach the 250th anniversary of the United States, this production offers a timely and meaningful opportunity to reflect on the complexities of American history and the courage it takes to uphold American ideals. By bringing Defining Courage to Park County, we honor this legacy of service and sacrifice, while inviting our Wyoming community to engage in a deeper understanding of patriotism, civil rights, and the ongoing pursuit of a more perfect union.
