2012 Tractor Nuts – May Bank Holiday Weekend – You’d be Nuts to Miss It!

LADS AND LASSIES, one of the most popular annual fundraising events in the South East is on the horizon once again. Hundreds of beautifully restored vintage tractors will start out on the Borris and District Tractor Nuts 9th Annual Road Run raising vital funds for both the Irish Cancer Society and the Irish Kidney Association.

Expect a large crowd out for a fun packed weekend with many tractor enthusiasts showcasing variety of pre 1990 tractors of differing ages – Massey’s, Ford’s, Nuffield’s, John Deere’s, many of which are restored back to their original condition and are a credit to their owners.

The tractor run has drawn quite a following over the last 8 years and last year an incredible crowd of over 400 partook and enjoyed the welcome sunshine. This is a great opportunity for visitors and participants alike to enjoy a unique spectacle with two miles of tractors expected.
