Sinclair Tractor will be celebrating their 25th Anniversary on Saturday, June 24th. This event is a private, invite-only party for 8,000 to 10,000 customers, employees, and business partners, as well as a fundraiser for the 5 Food Banks that service our area, providing food to 352 local food pantries.
With rising inflation and food insecurity at an all-time high, Sinclair Tractor owner & CEO Bob Sinclair felt it important to use this event to give back to the communities that have helped support Sinclair Tractor for the first 25 years. As a long-time supporter of the food banks, Bob Sinclair stated, “Inflation is tough. More and more people are going to find it hard to put food on the table. Sinclair Tractor has been blessed over the past 25 years to be a part of these communities, and we need to do our part to help those who are struggling.”
Sinclair Tractor has set a goal to raise $1 Million dollars for the food banks in Southeast Iowa, Northeast Missouri, and Western Illinois, and with the help of several business partners we are well on our way. While the party is free to its invited guests, there will be multiple opportunities for people to give back in the form of a donation to the area food banks.
This event is scheduled from 8am-7pm, a full day of activities. McMillan Park will be used starting June 20th-June 26th for set up and tear down.
Of course, with the influx of visitors, there will be many more cars on the road, so drive carefully and watch out for visitors. Also, many restaurants and fast-food chains will most likely see an increase in foot and car traffic during that day as a result of all the visitors.
