More than 1,200 4th graders from all over San Luis Obispo County enjoy The Great Agventure at the Paso Robles Event Center each October. Each of the 50 plus classes are guided through an arena event and five 20 minute demonstrations involving various aspects of agriculture. Farm equipment, animals, plants, science and an "AG-tivity" are enjoyed by each class. Over 20 different county schools, both public and private participate in the program. CattleWomen volunteer to host exhibits and act as docents.

"The presentations are designed to be as interactive as possible," said Lorraine Clark, "giving students the opportunity to gain hands-on experience, making the event both fun and educational." The Agriculture Education Committee provides the program free of charge to schools throughout the county.
