“We need more tractors to participate,” said Nordean Krueger, one of the promoters of the ShineFest tractor ride, which will take place on Saturday.

He said the pre-1974 tractors don’t have to be in prime condition, just running.

The tractor ride is scheduled to leave the Freeborn County Fairgrounds at 8 a.m. and travel on a route which will include Alden, Freeborn, Hartland, Clarks Grove and arrive back at the fairgrounds about 5 p.m. The public is invited to watch the passing tractors at any point along the route.
