Pedal Pull Event at Labor Day Celebration, Logan, KS
Pedal Pull Event
1 pm Registration, 2 pm Pedal Pull | Logan Golf Course
Ages 4-12

Ready to pedal? Kids ages 4 – 12 compete against kids their own age at the Siruta Pedal Pullers State Sanctioned Kids Tractor Pull.

Duskin and Missy Siruta, of Colby, KS, supply the pedal tractors and the sled. Each child sits on a pedal tractor and drags a weighted sled as far as they can go. As the sled is dragged it creates friction, making it harder to pull, so the farther they go, the harder it gets!

Is your child feeling competitive enough to try for a prize?

Winners are eligible to compete in the State Pull at the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson.
