Samsula Tractor Parade-2013

It is time for the best parade of the year! The Samsula Tractor Parade is December 14th! It starts at 3:00 pm from the SNPJ Lodge in Samsula (421 Samsula Rd) and proceeds down Samsula Rd to SR 44. If you have never been to the parade it is well worth it to take a ride out there and watch it. Great fun!

Here is the Facebook Event Page.

Tractor Parade

The best parade around is without a doubt the Tractor Parade in Samsula. It is this Saturday at 3:00 pm. The parade starts at the SNPJ Lodge on Samsula Road and continues on down to State Road 44. It is great fun with everything from antique tractors to rolling recliners. You never know what you will see!


 

Samsula Tractor Parade - Watch It Here

So I went to the Samsula Tractor Parade this afternoon. My daughter was riding in it. That is her and her horse. Below you can watch an entertaining slide show of the days entries. It was actually quite entertaining. I learned a few important things, there are alot of old tractors that still run and look great. Open container is not an issue in Samsula and there are those that still fly the Confederate Flag (sad but true). Click on the slideshow to watch it in fullscreen.

If you don't have any plans Saturday afternoon you have to head over to Samsula.....The 9th annual Samsula Tractor Parade will be held along Samsula Road at 3pm. The SNPJ Lodge sponsors the parade each year for the community. It is pretty much anything goes including animals and pets. Horses and riders will follow at the end of the parade (yes my daughter is riding in it on her artfully decorated horse with her fellow Marcody Ranch riders.)

Lineup for parade entries begins at 1 p.m. and the parade route leaves the lodge at 3 p.m., travels south on Samsula Drive and makes a turn at S.R. 44 onto the corner lot and returns back to the lodge for dinner and prizes.

The parade is open to the public and spectators are welcome to line up along Samsula Drive to watch the parade. After the parade, a lasagna dinner complete with salad, green beans and dessert will be served buffet style at $8 for an adult meal and $5 for children through age 12. Travis Stratton and Salt Water Bluegrass will play for dancing. The lodge bar will also be open, I imagine after this one might need a cocktail. I hear it is quite something and I am looking forward to it!!
