This was Dungiven YFC’s second ever tractor run.

The tractor Run was greatly supported by many enthusiastic members not only from Dungiven but also neighbouring clubs and not to forget about the local farmers who took time out of their day to come and support Dungiven YFC.

All the support was greatly appreciated.

Both modern and vintage tractors were on show.

The run started off at Limavady Show Grounds and finished up at McFarlane Animal Heath were everyone enjoyed a well deserved barbecue.

The girls did extremely well and gained second place overall in the finals, which was a great achievement for the club.
