There will be 275 individual entries in multi-levels of horsemanship skills on display as youth compete for high-point awards while demonstrating their passion in Equestrian Showmanship, English, Western, Trail, and Gymkhana classes. Admission is free and a concession stand will be available to satisfy your appetite and/or quench your thirst.

Please join the awards ceremony later today. The State Ambassadors will do an excellent job announcing the accomplishments of all State Field Day Presentation participants.

Here is a reminder the State Field Day Presentation Day awards ceremony will be live on Facebook, beginning at 6 pm. Merced 4-H was well represented at the event.

If anyone in Merced County 4-H is available, please sign up to evaluate some very interesting presentations. Thank you.
