North Iowa Nationals pull in 6,000 spectators to Rockwell

     Dirt flew and smoke wafted through the air as hundreds watched tractors and trucks from all over the region compete in the North Iowa Nationals tractor and truck pull on July 8 and 9 in Rockwell.

     The population of Rockwell increased by over 6,000 people for the two-day event, which saw 100 pullers compete at the national contest. It is the eighth year in a row the Rockwell Lions Club has hosted the pull, with this being the first year it was a national event.

     Spectators and pullers from all over the region were on hand to compete and take in the sights.
