First and second place trophies will be awarded in each class. The winners will also be featured in an upcoming issue of the White County Farm Bureau Ag News.
Registration can be made at the pedal pull registration table in the Floral Hall beginning at 4:30 p.m. the day of the event.
Winners in each class will be registered for the Illinois State Fair Pedal Pull, to be held on Tuesday, August 16 in Springfield, at the winner’s request.
