The welding department had a booth set up for attendees who wanted to give welding a try and we held numerous campus tours showcasing what is happening at Butte College. Dash and our campus goats even made an appearance. Thank you to all who attended!

What a Homecoming weekend! 🖤💛

From a week filled with school spirit and campus events to Saturday’s Alums & Friends BBQ and an electric afternoon at Cowan Stadium, Roadrunners came together to celebrate what makes Butte College special.

We were proud to recognize our newest Butte College Hall of Fame inductees at halftime and enjoyed an incredible performance by our Butte College cheerleaders that kept the energy high throughout the game.

On the field, our Roadrunners left it all out there, playing with heart, determination and Roadrunner spirit from kickoff to the final whistle.
Thank you to everyone who made Homecoming 2026 such a memorable celebration. Once a Roadrunner, always a Roadrunner!
