24 Hour Tractorthon Heading For Canowindra

20 June, 2018 By editor

How many laps do you think four vintage tractors could do of the Canowindra Sports Oval in 24 hours?

The first 24 hour Central West Tractor Trek Tractorthon will be held in Canowindra on Saturday 28th July at 2pm until Sunday
29th July at 2pm.

Over the two days at the Oval the Canowindra and surrounding communities are invited to come along and support the four vintage tractors that will be participating in the Tractorthon. The four tractors that will be participating on the day are from Canowindra, Yetholme, Cargo and Bathurst and there will also be vintage cars and rare tractors on display.

Roy White, from Canowindra and the Central West Tractor Trek Group has approached the three local schools and the pre-school to come along and participate on the day. Liz Francis, Director at Canowindra Pre-School, Sharon Hawker, Principal at Canowindra Public School, Ken Mc- Namara, Principal at St Edward’s Primary School and Darryl Ball, Deputy Principal at Canowindra High School will all take a turn at driving the vintage tractors for an hour on Sunday 29th July between 11am-12pm.

If you would like to get involved and sponsor a lap on the day or be an hourly sponsor please get in touch with Nick Clancy on 0404 057 746 or Roy White on 6344 1660. Raffle tickets are on sale at Canowindra Tyre Service and the Canowindra Phoenix office with some great prizes on offer including a brand new Hyundai i30 to be won.
