FREE Admission. Food trucks. Beer garden. FUN for all ages. NO CATS ALLOWED. Entry for dog competition was $5.

One small dog and one large dog won prizes from Whitie’s Pets as selected by our judges: Mary Castro, First Lady of Fresno State; Saúl Jiménez-Sandoval, Dean, College of Arts and Humanities; and Bryan Medina, Poet Laureate of Fresno.
