We are new to CT2V.  As we grow, the competition will become a two-day event.  With this being our first year, we designed the competition to be completed in one day.  If we are busting at the seams, we will adjust in 2026 and make the June and September events two-day events.  We will announce our decision on May 11th, after the first event.  We will also decide if the September 27th event will be moved to September 6th, which will allow us to keep September 27th as a possible rain make-up date.  We will make that decision before the May event.

Help us grow CT2V in the state of Kentucky, and we will expand the prizes and ribbons.
