Tractor Dyno Day in Ballyboy this weekend

Ballyboy Community Development and Tidy Towns is hosting the region's first ever Tractor Dyno Day this Saturday, October 1 in Ballyboy, near Kilcormac (R42Y890).

The way it works is tractor owners will pay €75 and get the horsepower of their engines professionally checked.

The event, running from 9am to 5pm, will also feature tractor skills competitions, a children's tractor event, trade stands, live music, food, face painting and much, much more.

Many of the region's main tractor dealers will also have a presence at the innovative event.

See the Ballyboy Community Development/Tidy Townsgroup Facebook page for booking details.

The fundraiser is supporting The Ashling Murphy Memorial Fund and Down Syndrome Offaly.
