From Gary Thomas
With the El Dorado County Fair being held one week later this coming year, some of the events during the month of June have shifted from the original schedule.
John Padjen Kids Bike Night will now be held on June 6th, while the Prospector’s Pursuit show will be June 13th. Thompson’s Fan Appreciation Night will be contested a week after the Fair on June 27th.
Some of the divisions have also been altered for those dates. Please view the schedule below to see all the details.
