Pulling 4 Paws – NEADS Truck Pull 2024

April 28 @ 11:00am - 4:00pm

Welcome to the 2024 Pulling 4 Paws Truck Pull

There’s fun for everyone, including batting practice in the WooSox batting cage, family games like Giant Jenga, awesome ballpark food, and, new this year, Zoomies 4 Paws, a kids’ run around the warning track. It’s a great family day.

Cheer on your favorite team as they compete to see who can pull an 18-wheeler the fastest, and enjoy a fun day at Polar Park for the whole family.

Take a backstage tour of Polar Park and try your skill in the WooSox batting tunnels—how do you measure up to the big leagues? Challenge your friends to Giant Jenga and other family friendly games and meet Smiley the WooSox mascot, all while DJ Mike Majikas spins tunes. Great ballpark food, beer, and wine will be available for purchase.
