The Bureau County Farm Bureau Foundation and the Henry County Farm Bureau Foundation are putting the final touches on plans for our first Tractor Trek. The Tractor Trek will be held on Saturday and Sunday, June 23 &24, 2012, rain or shine! This year's event is a partnership to raise funds for the Ag in the Classroom Program in the two counties. Participants will have the opportunity to share the exciting event with other antique tractor enthusiasts as they travel through the Western half of Bureau County and the Eastern half of Henry County. Pre-registration is required by completing a registration form.
The day of the event we will be leaving from the Bureau County Fair Grounds in Princeton at 9:00 a.m., with a drivers meeting at 8:30 a.m. (You must be checked in by 8:00 a.m.) We will travel west to the Hennepin Canal, and head towards Annawan for lunch, then make our final trek towards Cambridge to the Cambridge High School. On Sunday we will make our way back to Princeton. (Transportation back to Princeton Saturday p.m. and to Cambridge on Sunday a.m. is available if requested at registration).
There is a registration fee of $75. Refreshments, lunches, and a fun-filled experience will be provided. The deadline to register is June 8th, space is limited.
