Looking for a tractor show that is a little bit country and a little bit rock and roll? Than look no further than the upcoming 2011 Cambridge Tractor Show and Ag Day that will be held on Saturday, August 6 from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm in Cambridge, Illinois. There are not only lots of tractors “through the ages” to enjoy, but also a multitude of shows including a pedal tractor show, semi-tractor show, farm truck show, hit and miss motor show, and lawn and garden tractor show.

Still not enough variety for you? Then check out the featured tractor this year, which is a Farmall tractor sporting a Maytag motor that was chosen by Mayor Jim Crouch. It’s a 1952 Farmall Super M White Demonstrator tractor owned and restored by Dave and Angie Charlet of Cambridge.

Other tractors of note that will be on display include the “Pink and Red” 1948 M Marmall tractor specially painted to bring awareness to heart disease and breast cancer. This tractor is also owned by the Charlet’s and was restored by Chad Hutchingon, also of Cambridge, in memory of his mother Sylvia Hutchinson who died of heart disease.

While we have to leave some of the fun as a surprise for attendees, we will tell you that a fun new activity this year is an “pedal” tractor pull. There will also be fun ag-related games for kids of all ages 1 -100+. For more information contact Karen Hutchinson at 309-937-5859.
