Western Ontario Outlaws – Extreme Lawnmower Racing
– Western Ontario Outlaws Lawn Tractor Racing was established in the fall of 2006 as a family friendly activity. There’s no prize money in the sport, called the ‘poor man’s NASCAR’, and machines can reach 160 km/h with engines having from 8 to 90 horsepower and costing from $500 to $5,000 to build depending on the racing class. Each year the club financially sponsors a charity of their choice and for the past three years this has been the Petrolia Food Bank. The club provides a lawn tractor racing venue
at its track in Petrolia as well as at fairs and special events in addition to the ten regular Sunday afternoon events at the home track.
Ploughman’s Farmyard Children’s Educational Activity Centre
– Have you ever milked a cow? Come meet Mabel the Cow and give it a try. Do you know what a cow sees when it looks around? We can show you. With help from our local Cattle Associations, the Ploughman’s Farmyard has gone BOVINE as part of our celebration of Cowbells & Carousels. Lots of fun things to see and do!
