Twas a chilly day yesterday but we were thankful there was no rain! We are very grateful for all the people that helped to make this day such a success. As with all our events, we don't do this alone and it doesn't get done in one day. We don't just show up on Sunday and go.We want to thank those helpers who went to the museum numerous times to get the grounds and equipment ready . We couldn't do this without you.
Thank you to the Orange County Farmer's Museum for letting us rent the grounds every year to do our Fundraising Tractor Pull. This was the very first event we did 12 years ago to help to raise funds to give away the Jimmy Holbert Memorial Scholarship at Valley Central High School. With the help of others, we have been able to continue this event successfully each year since then.
We also want to thank J.M.J. Industrial Mechanical for once again donating the trophies! His donation allows us to give more of the proceeds back to the community. We like to make them memorable, and this year was no exception. If you scroll through the pics you will see a Fish on top of the trophies!π£πiykyk
I have attached some of our pics but the really good ones are courtesy of Fred Perna and Perna Imaging. Please check out his page for many more of the day .
It is always a bittersweet day for sure, but we are grateful for those that help, those that participate and those that just stop by to say hello. It helps us to know that so many still think of James and are helping us keep his memory alive. π€ ππ
