A tractor ride is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 3, as a fundraiser for the Winnebago Honor Flight organization.

Any tractor that runs 12 mph is eligible. Trailers with riders are welcome. The cost is $35 per driver and $10 per rider. All funds will be donated to the Winnebago Honor Flight. This organization provides no cost tours to Washington, D.C. for World War II veterans to visit their new memorial and to see other significant memorials and sites in the nation’s capital city.

The route is to leave the Emmons Legion at 9:30 a.m., and travel to Joice, Iowa, and stop for coffee around 10:30 a.m. Then the route goes to Lake Mills, with lunch at Silverado’s about 11:30 a.m. to noon. The ride is scheduled to arrive in Scarville, Iowa, at approximately 3 p.m. and end at the Emmons Legion for dinner. All times are approximate except for the start.

The public is welcome to participate, especially tractor owners. The Honor Flight group is asking for a donation for all meals.
