The "Big 3" Field Days dates back to the 1960s. Now the event hosts 2,000 youth each day for three days. These field days teach life skills that last beyond high school and will be held at the Totusek Arena at Oklahoma State University on July 16-18, 2019.
Work ethic, teamwork skills, decision-making skills, and communication skills are just part of what goes into the judging skills gained during the "Big 3" Field Days.
The OSU Animal Science Field Days will be held July 16-18, 2019 at the OSU Animal Science Arena with the Sheep Field Day being held on Tuesday, the Beef Field Day on Wednesday, and the Swine Field Day on Thursday.
Trophies will be presented to the first through third place teams in each division each day. Plaques will be presented to the top five individuals in each division each day. Team sweepstakes trophies will be awarded to the junior and senior FFA teams. Plaques will be given to the top two individuals in each division for sweepstakes. OSU ANSI "Big 3" Field Days' method for calculating overall team sweepstakes will be determined by simply adding each team's daily total (minus the low drop from each day).
A $500 scholarship will be awarded to the senior sweepstakes winner in both of the 4-H and FFA divisions. The scholarship will be funded by Farm Credit in Enid. Click here for more information.
