This trek will begin at the Nevada County Fair Grounds Administration Building where trek leader, Ed Scofield will provide a brief history of the event while you enjoy some hors d’oevres and lemonade. Then proceed to the barns to meet the exhibitors and watch them as they prepare for the Friday evening event.

Meet the owners of the big hitches and the gentle giants that make up the team. You will be shown first hand the major breeds, represented in the Classic, from the Clydesdales of the Parnell Ranch, the Belgians of the VanExel team, as well as teams of Percherons and Shires.
