You will not want to miss the 1st Annual Mackinac Bridge Antique Tractor Crossing on September 12!

Tractors will stage in Mackinaw City and parade across the Mackinac Bridge beginning around 1:00 p.m.  There will be close to 800 tractors making this crossing, and it is estimated that it will take approximately 3 hours for all of the tractors to cross the bridge.

Tractors on display must be 1962 and older, and club membership is required.
