South Yorkshire farmers are once again ready to spread Christmas cheer to the people of Penistone and the children of Woolley Wood Special Educational School.
This Saturday, Penistone and the surrounding areas will be greeted by a convoy of festively decorated tractors and wagons rolling through their villages and towns.
This is the second time a tractor run has been organised by Facebook group ‘The Tractor Lads’ in the hope of raising £750 for Woolley Wood School based in Parson Cross, Sheffield. It was their followers who chose this year’s charity through a poll of 11 different ones.
A total of 449 people voted and a massive 49.7% (223 votes) felt that Woolley Wood School deserved this year’s fundraising.
One of the organisers of the tractor run, Andy Lucas, explained: “We have 100 tractors and wagons booked in to take part this year and we would like to say if you can support us in any way that would be very much appreciated. We want to give the kids of Woolley Wood School a Christmas to remember.”
The run itself will start at 4pm leaving Crowedge, and then heading through Oxspring, Cubley, and Penistone before ending back at Crowedge at 6pm.
The run is just one part of the festive fun on offer. There will be a Santa’s grotto, food and drink, raffles, auctions and a prize for the best dressed tractor/wagon.
