Moraine Area Tractor Cruisers
Moraine is is a word for glacial weathering. Apparently when the glaciers stopped melting and moved accross the North East of America they carried pockets of sand, gravel, and limestone for hundreds of miles. They also helped sculpt the hills and terrains of the North East. The most concentrated area of this geoligical land movemnt can be found in Western Pennsylvania. All over this region has been mined for such raw materilas and farmed on the rich soil. Also the lanscape is perfect for picture quality. Our group was formed by a group of tractor enthuisists who wanted to cruise our countryside by way of tractors. Unlike out west and the plains their cruises travel on very straight, very flat roads. Here in beautiful Western Pa its hard to find a flat and straight road. Even though we mostly prefer to take the lesser traveled and uncommon roads there is still enjoyment to be found. Whether it be a parade, a Sunday joyride, or our annual spring cruise we manage to get together and travel down the road.Our cruises are sponsered by local business' who donate variable amounts to support our cuase. Also the cruisers themselves donate their time and money as well. Our main proceeds go to a charity. Our charitys are given to a certian person or family that is in need of help. Whether it be a farmer that is sick or a child with a disease. We love to help out anyway we can.Our only rules is that you have fun and help each other out. That means that any age of a person can participate. And shape of age, condition, or color of a tractor is welcome. We have a wagon for those who are not able to drive a tractor or own a tractor.
If you still think we are crazy for driving tractors down the road for lots of miles; just ask any member how excited they are about next years cruise.Click here to add text.
