Women on Tractors June Salisbury

During my first event as a CCAMA Member, my jaw dropped when I saw women driving the tractors. I was in awe of these women ! It is unique to see a woman on a tractor pulling a sled at an event. Just do some research on Google. Put in the search "women on tractors" Do you know what you will see? You will see beautiful women posed in front, on, or across the tractor. In this club we have beautiful, strong, and capable women who know how to drive a tractor and compete in tractor pulls with the men. So I asked them, How did you get started driving tractors?

June Salibury has written the following:

 Kanab, Utah  9-2013

Tractors and Antique Machinery started for me in 1995.

We went to our first antique machinery show and tractor pull in South Jordan where the Utah Antique Machinery Assn was holding their annual event.  I could tell it was really love at first sight for Red and I made a decision right there to learn to like tractors, or I would be left at home.  This event was very enjoyable and educational. During the next year Red and our son Phil bought 2 tractors and started to restore them and get them ready to pull. When 1996 rolled around and it was time to go to the UAMA event we took one tractor, the 1947 Case LAI.  While they were involved in pulling and hanging with the guys, I went over to the antique machinery show where they were auctioning off a Case VAC tractor. I bought that tractor and I still pull it today. It was previously owned by a church and used only to mow weeds.  It was kept in great shape and with a bit of care it was ready to go to the pulls in 1997.  From that point on I have taken “TUFFY” to every tractor pull possible.

In about 2005 I decided I wanted a bigger tractor so I bought the Minneapolis Moline U Diesel.  After many years to restore it and tons of money it is now known as the “MONEY PIT” and I hate pulling that bigger tractor, so Red has a new tractor to pull.

In 2000 there was a small group of tractor enthusiasts in Southern Utah, so we got together and decided to start our own branch of EDGE&TA.   With Red as the President and Me as the Secretary we got our start. We also had to include everyone that worked for us and most of our family members to get the 25 members required to start a branch. The rest you might say is history. We put on our first pull and recruited many more interested people. Each year more and more members came out to pull.  Because we started with several husband and wife teams pulling that trend continued in our club to this day.  It has really held our club together because pulling tractors has become a family event.

We have traveled all over the west buying antique tractors and farm equipment.  We have made many friends across the west at tractor shows and events. This has been a fun hobby.

WE HAD A GREAT EVENT ! 
YOU ALL LOOK SO GOOD OUT THERE.

Did you have a good time? The weather was perfect, beautiful blue skies with wispy clouds. Look how Bill Desilva captured the sky and the tractors at the Diamond Arena in this photo he took.

There are many people who make this event a success. Let us give a hand for these ladies who keep this event running smoothly as you are all weighing in and pulling your tractors. I saw them from across the arena and I just had to get a picture of them. I shuffled through the dirt weaving in and out of draft horses and tractors and made my way to their table where they perform their wonders.

This is a job not many people can do. It requires focus and constant attention to details. They keep track of your pulls, and fill out your ribbons, and keep it all organized in everyway possible.  And on top of all that, they manage to stand in for each other to pull their tractors! Amazing. 

I enjoyed photographing you all and have quite a few videos. You can see the first batch of photographs I have uploaded on the Cedar Livestock Festival 2018 CCAMA album right here at  Google Photos.

Fun Family & Friends CCAMA Fun Pull

If you tickle the earth with a 
hoe she laughs with a harvest.
~ Douglas William Jerrold 


Were you there?

The Fun Pull was held at Red and June Salisbury's. We arrived around 9:30 am. The weather was gorgeous and the pull went on under blue skies and a last quarter moon.  


Some tractors drove right into Red's from the road and others were

unloaded off their trailers. Everyone weighed in.
