The weekend-long event will begin with registration on Friday afternoon, which will continue early Saturday morning. Events will continue on Saturday with the boot camp scheduled for the early afternoon and an evening dinner sponsored by Zinpro. The show will start at 8 a.m. Sunday, and will have market beef, dairy steer, breeding heifer, and showmanship divisions.
