Moneymore YFC annual charity tractor run
It is a fun, family and community event that helps bring the agricultural community together to help fund different charity’s around the country.
The Easter Monday (April 22) tractor run usually starts in the auction rooms Magherafelt (Castledawson roundabout) but this location can vary between years.

The route is also something that can vary from year to year, but we keep it to our main towns and don’t travel to far.
This is a very popular event in the community, and we have seen over 200 tractors attend this event in previous years to support both or charity of choice and YFC club.
Moneymore YFC are very proud to say that they have supported local charities such as Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice Club, Mid Ulster Stroke Survivors Club and Superstars Cookstown.
Moneymore YFC have raised an amazing amount of money for both these charity’s and club funds, which help Moneymore YFC go on amazing trips through the year as well as attend educational talks.
