A sizable field of youngsters 12 and under competed in the annual Booster Days pedal-tractor pull, held Sunday afternoon in the Lakefront Park bathhouse parking lot.

The top three finishers in each of the five age categories are eligible to advance to the state contest in Mondovi in September.

Western Wisconsin Pedal Pull, operated by the Roger Neumann family of New Richmond, runs the pedal pulls in communities around the region.

The Neumanns’ Facebook page says their goal is to provide good, clean family fun while building children’s self-esteem, confidence and sportsmanship.
