There's exciting news coming out of the Loddon Valley Stud Group as preparations ramp up for this year's event. 

We're thrilled to announce that Belvue Creek Merinos will be displaying at the Serpentine Recreation Reserve this year. This move marks an exciting step forward for the stud and for the field day itself, positioning Belvue right in the heart of the main event. 

Joining them at the reserve will be Kamarooka Park, alongside new group members Avonmore and Everton Park. It's fantastic to see both established and emerging studs coming together to strengthen the showcase of quality Merino genetics with the Loddon. Valley. 

The relocation of Belvue Merinos and Kamarooka Park to Serpentine Recreation Reserve presents a significant opportunity. Being positioned within the main event hub opens the studs up to greater engagement, increased foot traffic, and the chance for more attendees to view their sheep up close. Greater accessibility means more conversations, more connections, and more expose for their breeding programs.

This move reflects the continued growth and evolution of the Loddon Valley Field Day Group. With a strong lineup of studs and enthusiastic new members on board, this year's event promises to deliver an even more dynamic and engaging experience for producers and visitors alike.

We look forward to welcoming everyone to Serpentine Recreation Reserve and celebrating another successful field day together.
