PEDAL TRACTOR PULL

Saturday, July 31 at 12:30pm, City Park

The Haskell County Farm Bureau Association first sponsored the Kids' Pedal Pull Contest at the Haskell County Fair in 1995. Each year since then, kids from ages 4 - 12 have competed in this event. In order to make it less hectic for both the kids and the adults, the contest has been moved to the City Park to be held during the Community Bar-B-Que.

Every child that gets on a tractor receives a soda pop, compliments of the Haskell County Farm Bureau Association. Medals are awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places in each of the nine age divisions,

The 1st place winners in each age division at the local level then qualify to compete at the state competition held every year at the Kansas State Fair at Hutchinson in September. Kansas Farm Bureau, of Manhattan, KS, sponsors the state contest. The 1st place winners at the state level then qualify to go on to the National Pedal Pull Contest.

Any child 4 - 12 years old who is interested in participating in the Pedal Pull should be at the park with their parents by 12:30pm on Saturday. No pre-registration is necessary.
