Nelson County Fair Bardstown, Kentucky July 21st      2007 info below...      The Mid-South Pullers Association is headed to the Eastern time zone to “My Old Kentucky Home”!  And that's located in Bardstown, Kentucky.  Bardstown, located 40 miles due south of Louisville, is a historic community with roots back to the Civil War.  Bardstown is also known as the “Bourbon capital of the World”.  They celebrate this with the annual Kentucky Bourbon Festival which will take place this September 14-18.      This Saturday night (July 21st) the Nelson County Fair will be filled with the smell of food, the sounds of happy fairgoers, and the roar of a truck and tractor pull.  There could very well be a battle on the track that could be a mild reenactment of a Civil War battle.  Well, how about a North vs. South battle.  Bardstown has more history in pulling also.  It is home to Mike Wilhite and Jimmy Mattingly to name a few.      The 1-Day event will feature the 6,000# Super Stock, 10,000# Pro Stock, 9,300# Super Farm Tractors, 7,500# Super Modified Tractors, and the 6,200 # Super Modified Four-Wheel Drive trucks. Lowry Brothers will be providing the sled.  Admission will be $8.00 at the gates for adults.  The first hook will be at 7:30PM EST following the National Anthem each night. Attention all pullers… If you have not received a pass from Sharon Wallace you will have to pay to enter the pull.  You will be refunded your money when you register.  Prior to last years event the Bardstown promotions rebuilt the track and had a great pull.  Preparation is already underway to have another great track this year!      If you're at the fair on Friday night, the fair board will be auctioning off an antique tractor.  All proceeds from the auction will benefit our Fort Campbell soldiers!      It should be a great weekend.  We hope to see you there!
