University of Wyoming celebrates 100 years of homecoming

“Cheers to 100 Years!” is the theme celebrating 100 years of homecoming at the University of Wyoming (UW). Events are scheduled Sept. 25-30.

This year’s homecoming lineup will include a “Tribute to Steamboat,” an event featuring rodeo-related activities and swing dancing at the Cliff and Martha Hansen Livestock Teaching Arena.

A new event, the Legacy Lunch, will be introduced, along with the annual Cowboy Coffee gathering, the parade and other activities. 

The week will conclude with the UW Cowboys Football Team facing the New Mexico Lobos in War Memorial Stadium on Sept. 30. Game time will be announced later.

“We are excited to celebrate 100 years of homecoming this fall,” says Jack Tennant, UW Alumni Association (UWAA) executive director. “We will be continuing the Tribute to Steamboat started last year and launching another new event, Legacy Lunch, to celebrate alumni with current UW students who have made UW a family tradition. We can’t wait to see alumni back on campus.”
