History - 2006/2007

A snapshot of the clubs activities during the Rotary year 2006-2007.


9th July 2006 - Northallerton Carnival Tractor Pull

On 9th July the Club took part in a joint venture with the Thirsk and Northallerton Lions Club to run a Tractor Pull as part of Northallerton Carnival.

The event took place in Northallerton High Street which was closed to traffic for the afternoon. Whilst the administration etc was undertaken by the Lions, our Club was involved on the day with stewarding and marshalling to ensure a safe environment for pullers and those attending the Carnival.

Monies raised by the event are to be donated equally between The Mowbray Suite and The Special Care Baby Unit, both at the Friarage Hospital, The Butterwick Childrens Hospice and Marie Curie Cancer Care.

Winners on the day pulling a 4-ton tractor 100 metres were a team from Northallerton Young Farmers Club (pictured above)
