Sorry it took me so long to get this up guys, been working my draw bar off !! Thanks again for all your help KEN!!!
Hi Everyone,
I want to extend a invitation to the 2009 Memorial Day Weekend Lawn Mower Rodeo and pull!! This is a one of a kind event located in Rochester Indiana
http://www.lakeviewcampingfun.com . We start the day by signing the national anthem then doing a parade. Our events include best looking/ugliest tractor, a limbo, drag race, obstacle course, trailer backing contest, bumper chain pull, fast retrieval and many more. We always end the Day with a pull featuring the new flying boat "The Humbler". Our track is up hill for something different. The rules are simple, tractor must be all stock mechanically, just remove the mower deck.Any mower will do we have antiques to brand new. There is no age or sex gap. People of all ages participate. Its a great deal of fun!! I have geared it towards the way it used to be a the county fair. We also find a charity to raise money for, this year we are working to raise money for the Shriners Hospitals for kids. Last year it was the Humane Society. The local 4H comes in and serves food to raise money for there projects. We give out great prizes and have a former Radio DJ to host the event. As a special promotion we are going to use a awn mower to smash a RV !!! We Do Rodeos on the Sunday of Memorial (may 24th) and Labor day weekend! I appreciate your time and look forward to your response !
