Local ranchers drive their herds down Robertson Boulevard during the annual Chowchilla Cattle Drive on Friday morning.
The annual Chowchilla Cattle Drive made its thunderous return down Robertson Boulevard Friday morning with style and fanfare, surrounded by rodeo royalty.
This iconic event began in 1958, and is considered the only public cattle stampede in the nation. It marks the official kickoff to the rodeo festivities at the Chowchilla Fairgrounds, which ran through Sunday.
Hundreds lined up to watch local ranchers and their herds bring the spirit of the Old West to life. The Cattle Drive celebrates Chowchilla’s deep agricultural roots, setting the stage for a weekend packed with community festivities.
