Pulling for Jesus Tractor and Music Expo-  George H. Henderson Expo Center -Lufkin, Texas,

June 25-27, 2010

Tractors of all types may begin arriving at 12 noon on June 25.
Christian music will start at 6 pm on Friday with Christian youth bands and end at 10pm. This will definitely be a family event where I will try to draw various types of groups to the event. Entry to the tractor show is free for the exhibitors and the fans. Music from various Christian groups on Saturday will transition from Southern Gospel to Contemporary Christian at night. I am planning a larger concert on Saturday night , 7 p.m.,with the Robbie Seay Band and FFH in which there will be a $15 charge for admission. Hopefully this will draw a crowd of 5,000+. There are numerous covered pavilions where tractors will be displayed. A tractor parade is scheduled for the exhibitors to drive through the Expo Center at the beginning of the concert on Saturday night. The more ol' tractors and engines,the merrier for kids of all ages to enjoy. Pedal tractors for the young kids, music, hayrides, and food for everyone. On Sunday, there will be a church service available to anyone who wishes to attend. The planned time for the show to end is 3 pm on Sunday. Two barbecue pits will be awarded to the exhibitors with the best educational exhibits (one for students/2010 graduates and under and one for the adults). Other prizes include the Best of Show, the Exhibitor that Traveled the Longest Distance, and many more... This will be a show that you will not want to miss. See you in June.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me, P. T. Walters, at pullingforjesus@gmail.com or (936)414-2082. home phone/fax (936)824-2543. web-site: PullingforJesus.com (under construction) I am interested in posting pics of the exhibitors coming to the event to this web-site. I am also in need of more operational exhibits, threshing, steam engines, etc. God Bless!


FYI-
The money raised at the concert will go to pay for this year's expenses, pay for the use of the Expo for next year, a portion will go to send youth groups to camp, and another portion will go to support Christian radio.

Food vendors will be comprised of church youth groups only.  For example, I attend Trinity Baptist Church.  The youth group leaders want to sell barbecue sandwiches.  This is the only thing that they can sell and no other group can sell the same item. (another church water, another sweet tea, etc.) This money will go toward youth groups attending Christian youth camps.  Each of the youth group is responsible for working their own booth and will be allowed to keep all of their money raised for their youth to attend camp.

I will also have booths set up where each church can place up to five items on a table for a silent auction.  This money will go to a missionary of their choice.  Each church is responsible for setting up their table of items and collecting the money.  I would like a picture of the missionary and contact information to be visible on the front of the table. 


Thanks for any help that you can give.

God Bless,
