MURRAY – Organizers and volunteers of the Murray Tractor Pull on Sunday presented a check for $10,000 to the Ronald McDonald House, which provides hospitality for families with children fighting a serious illness.

The Christ family has been running the tractor pull for many years on a course they built on Groth Road. The setup includes a track, concessions stand and parking. This year’s pull was on July 22 and attracted more than 1,000 spectators.

The $10,000 is up from the $8,500 donated last year from the event to the Ronald McDonald House.

Ronald McDonald House representatives accept the $10,000 from the Murray Tractor Pull and another $300 from the Fancher-Hulberton-Murray Fire Company.
