With over 500 exhibitors from 27 States, Canada and Australia the Great Bend Farm and Ranch Expo will be one of the largest in the region. We have many exciting exhibits and activities planned this year. There will be over 80 acres of exhibit space and not the mention over $5000 in prizes and giveaways.

Scott Daily will be on hand this year at the Expo to demonstrate horse training techniques. Scott has been around horses most of his life. His love for horses and desire to train them began in 4-H while he was growing up in Inola, Oklahoma. Scott started training horses about 15 years ago. After many years of working with challenging colts and horses, Scott has developed and perfected his own techniques. He believes in building trust between horse and rider.

Another exciting feature of the Expo will be the sprayer demonstrations. The demonstrations will be held everyday of the expo at 1:00pm at the Southeast corner of the South runway. The demonstrations will include the newest sprayers available in the industry and on the market today. The sprayers will perform and demonstrate how each machine works, including application techniques in a live demo situation. Seating and audio will be provided.
