Each year, over 50,000 youth from Calgary and Southern Alberta get hands-on learning experiences about food sustainability, ecosystem care, and animal welfare at the Calgary Stampede! These programs are shaping the future of our community by educating the next generation on the importance of sustainability and responsible stewardship. #YouthEducation #Sustainability #CalgaryStampede2024 #CRIEC

While many rodeos and western events might traditionally shout "Yeehaw," here in Calgary, we proudly exclaim "YAHOO"! The word “Yahoo” showed up in Calgary Herald articles as far back as 1901, becoming a cultural tradition and offering a unique identity to the Stampede. So, whether you're a born-and-raised Calgarian or a newcomer to our city, when you hear that jubilant "YAHOO," it's our way of welcoming you to join in the festivities and embrace the spirit of Stampede! #CalgaryStampede #YAHOO #WesternHeritage #CommunitySpirit #CRIEC #Stampede2024
