A Look Back at µÛÍõ»áËù Homecoming Parades

For decades, µÛÍõ»áËù’s Homecoming parade was a signature part of fall in Greeley - a small-town tradition with big Bear pride. And in 2025, the Homecoming parade is back!

For decades, µÛÍõ»áËù’s Homecoming parade was a signature part of fall in Greeley - a small-town tradition with big Bear pride. From student-built floats rolling down 10th Avenue to marching bands echoing across campus, the parade brought together students, alumni, and community members in a celebration of school spirit and creativity.

We’ve dug into the archives to pull some of our favorite parade photos through the years. Whether you were an organizer, a marcher, a spectator or just someone who got stuck in the traffic, there’s a good chance these images will bring back memories.

And yes, after a long hiatus, the Homecoming parade is coming back!

Take a scroll through parade history below, and mark your calendar for this year’s celebration on Saturday, September 27, 2025.
