Dear Counselor/High School Seniors,
The Green County Fall Nationals is a non-profit organization established in 2007. Initially designed to be a one-time entertainment event, GCFN continues to hold a truck and tractor pull at the Green County Fairgrounds every year!
The organization is proud to be able to contribute 100% of their profits back to Green County and surrounding communities and over the past years have donated over $400,000 to families and organizations in need.
Please visit our website at www.greencountyfallnationals.com to learn more about the organization which is currently sponsored by approximately 125 businesses and individuals in the area.
The continued success of our organization depends entirely on sponsorship and attendance at the event. Our logo is Pullin’ For The Community and it is our hope that we can continue this event in order to help make life a little better for individuals in our area as well as offering scholarships and other initiatives as we have done this year. Below are the details of the GCFN scholarship program:
