Pulling
for Education is held the second weekend in October. This
event features antique tractor pulls, garden tractor
pulls, as well as pedal tractor pulls for the children. A
completely restored, operational 1912 Case Steam Traction
Engine, is also featured. Just think back, if you are a
little older than most, bus still young at heart, about
how it would be entertaining to watch a grist mill grind
corn, a blacksmith at work, cane syrup being made, or even
seeing a sawmill run by a stationary engine. You can eat
cornbread that was shelled in a hand-cranked sheller, then
ground in a grist mill and cooked on a wood cook stove in
a cast iron skillet.
The Trust is a 501(c)3 organization so all proceeds from
the event go to scholarships for students who participate
in this program from the Chipley and Vernon high schools.
Come have a great day out with the family, reminisce or
just create new memories of "how things used to
be".
