WYOMING — The 42nd Annual Great Wyoming Buffalo Stampede will be held Saturday, July 10 at 7:30 a.m. at Wyoming Park in Wyoming.

Participants can choose from a 5K run/walk or a 10K run. Both the 5K and 10K courses are mostly on paved roads through orchards and scenic country roads.

The race will feature handcrafted wooden buffalo awards, which will go to first, second and third-place male and female runners in five-year age groups starting at age 9 and under through age 80 and over.

There will also be 5K walk awards for the top five male and female finishers.

Other features of the race include chip timing and technical shirts. Fruit donated by Fifer Orchards and Camden Wyoming Market will be available at Wyoming Park. There will be a free “kiddie race” before the Stampede.
A traditional post-race party and awards ceremony will be held at Brown’s Tavern.

Register online. The registration fee is $25 for the 5K and $30 for the 10K until July 1 and increases to $30 for the 5K and $35 for the 10K after that. Event-day registration is available.
