If you have lived in the Lumby area for a few years, you may remember the thrills and excitement of the Lawn Tractor Races that used to be held every year where the Monashee Mews now stand. Have you been waiting for their return?
Well… wait no longer!
With some enthusiastic help and support from a few locals racers, volunteers and businesses, the races will be back for 2022!
The races will be held in the field surrounded by the new section Salmon Trail near the western entrance to Lumby. Two temporary tracks will be built in the field with four classes of races available. Super Stock (ages 10 to 13), Modified class (ages 14 and up) and Super Modified class (ages 16 and up) and the Open Class (Just bring what you have and race it.) With a full set of racing rules, as well as rules for each class of tractor, anyone can become a lawn tractor racer!
Don’t have a racing tractor yet but want to enter? Don’t worry, there is still time to get ready. The first Qualifying Races will be held on May 28 & 29, 2022 and the Preliminary Races to be held on June 4 & 5, 2022. Although not officially associated with Lumby Days, the Finals will be held on the same weekend (June 10, 11 & 12, 2022). Come on out and support this fun family event!
