About

Antique Tractor pulling is a dying sport—but not at the Rusk County Youth Expo Center! You'll be able to see much more here, too, including emotional paintings of children championing livestock and a gallery of all the local ranch brands. The whole place is a celebration of ranch life. The venue hosts an array of events including livestock sales and shows, concerts, and equestrian events.
