Lawn Mower Races back in line-up at County Fair

Posted

Lawn Mower Races have found their way back into the fair line-up this year and were held on Tuesday, August 1. Two divisions were created for the races including Stock and Modified. The Stock division is the average every-day lawn mower that has not been tampered with while the Modified division is comprised of machines that at one point in their history were used to cut grass but have since been given an upgrade. Each division competed in three competitions: poles, barrels, and a race. Poles and barrels were timed events for a winner while the race was a true competition.
Winners included:
Stock Division: only placing 1st

1st place: Lane Hite
Modified Division: placing 1st and 2nd
1st place: Danny Matney
2nd place: Remington Southwick
