OSU's Big 3 Field Days Canceled Due To COVID-19
A three-day youth livestock event is canceled, due to COVID-19.
It was supposed to start on Tuesday. After a recent outbreak at a summer camp, organizers say they wanted to be cautious. A state spokesperson said several positive COVID-19 cases were reported by people who attended Future Farmers of America Alumni Camp.
Since many of those students also attend OSU Big 3 Field Days (Youth Livestock | Oklahoma State University (okstate.edu)), the university decided to cancel the event.
"It's really disappointing," said high school freshman Izzy Lewis.
The Big 3 Field Days are a three-day event where each day, around 1,900 students judge livestock for a chance to win prizes and scholarships. Lewis would have been there this week competing with her friend.
