Winners to be Recognized During Ceremonies at State and County Fairs Across the Country
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. (March 24, 2017) — Tractor Supply
Company, the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States, has just
announced the launch of its first ever ‘Great Neighbor’ essay contest. The
competition is a new component of the retailer’s Mobile Fair Tour — a 19-stop
journey across the United States that will begin its route June 8 in Illinois
and conclude Oct. 22 in Arkansas.
Beginning Friday, March 24, Tractor Supply is
asking 4-H and FFA members living in or near one of its 19 fair stops to submit
essays in response to the following question: What does 4-H/FFA mean to
you, and how has your organization allowed you to be the best neighbor you can
be in your community?
Tractor Supply will use the essay contest to
select five winners per fair stop to be recognized during a special ceremony at
their respective state or county fair. Winners will be presented with a
commemorative certificate and TSC gift pack.
“We are excited to kick off this new contest,
targeted to 4-H and FFA youth who play such an important role in the
communities we serve,” said Tractor Supply’s Director of Store Marketing Lisa
White. “It’s an honor for TSC to recognize their hard work and passion around
making our communities all they can be.”
Eligible 4-H and FFA members have until Monday,
April 24, at 5 p.m. CST to submit an essay.
