This was the second annual Tractor Cruise by the Tractor Cruiser 445th Division. This is not a Post 287 project, but members of Post 287 have been involved in helping the Edgerton Post 445 get the 1st - Ever American Legion Tractor Cruiser Division started within the Department of Missouri. The following are pictures highlighting the 2nd annual tractor cruise. The goal is to have a tractor cruise on the first Saturday of June of each year. The Tractor Cruiser Division 445 wants to take advantage of all the patriotic spirit carried over from the previous weekend of Memorial Day ceremonies and recognition's.
