Published 9:55 am Wednesday, August 12, 2015
The 2015 Cass County Fair Pedal Pull attracted more than 125 participants from all over the Michiana area.
Youngsters ages 5 through 12, get their tractor pulling start using a pedal tractor that is just their size. The tractor is attached to a pulling sled.
With grit and determination, they pedal down the course pulling the weighted sled to see who can pedal the greatest distance. Trophies for this year’s event were sponsored by the Cass County Tractor Pullers.
