CARNEY -- Hundreds of tractor enthusiasts are expected to gather in Carney this weekend for the fifth annual Tractor Show.

Dozens of antique tractors are on display Saturday and Sunday.  There are even some games for those who want to take part, like tractor and lawn mower pulls.

The event is put on by the Mid County Antique Power Club.  All proceeds raised go back into the community.

"Should somebody have a fire or get burned out, we try to help them out some," says group president Al Thompson.  "If they have a medical problem and need help, we try to help with that also.  We also do scholarships for kids that are interested in agriculture or 4H."

If you missed out on the show Saturday, don't worry.  The show will run again Sunday, opening at 9 a.m. CST.
