THE Elmore Tractor Pull will return next weekend to where it started in 1976 at the Elmore Field Days.<\/p>\n

The tractor pull was the first of its kind in Australia.<\/p>\n

The event is being run by the Elmore Field Days, in conjunction with the Down Under Modified Tractor Pulling Association<\/p>\n

“It is so good to have it where it belongs,” said executive manager of Elmore Field Day, Derek Shotton.<\/p>\n

“The Elmore Tractor Pull holds a unique place in Australian tractor-pulling history and our local community.<\/p>\n

“First established in 1976 at the Elmore Field Days, the sport later flourished in our district under the stewardship of the neighbouring Colbinabbin community for many years.<\/p>\n

“After a period of hiatus, the Elmore Tractor Pull was proudly revived in 2020 through a partnership between Elmore Field Days and St Joseph’s Primary School, Rochester.<\/p>\n

“Following three highly successful events, Elmore Field Days is stepping up as the sole promoter and event owner, ensuring the future growth and success of this much-loved tradition for generations to come.”<\/p>\n

The Elmore Tractor Pull will be held on Saturday 15 March. Gates open at 3pm with the tractor pull commencing at 4pm.<\/p>\n

There will be onsite catering with food, drink and bar facilities and alcohol and non-alcohol spectator banks.<\/p>\n

No glass or BYO is permitted. There is no camping on site, but free camping is available at Aysons Reserve.<\/p>\n
