{{Main|Picnic Day (UC Davis)}}

Picnic Day is an annual event at the [[University of California, Davis]] and is always held on the third Saturday in April. It is the largest student-run event in the US. Picnic Day starts off with a parade, which features the [[UC Davis California Aggie Marching Band-uh!]], and runs through campus and around downtown Davis and ends with the Battle of the Bands, which lasts until the last band stops playing (sometimes until 2&nbsp;am). There are over 150 free events and over 50,000 attend every year. Other highlights include: the [[Dachshund]] races, a.k.a. the Doxie Derby, held in the Pavilion; the Davis Rock Challenge, the Chemistry Magic Show, and the sheep dog trials. Many departments have exhibits and demonstrations, such as the Cole Facility, which until recently showed a [[fistula]]ted cow (a cow that has been fitted with a plastic portal (a "[[fistula]]") into its digestive system to observe digestion processes). Its name was "Hole-y Cow".
