WHAT
Kids of all ages are invited to come play and learn about a day in the life of John Deere customers at the John Deere Pavilion's Learn & Play Day on Saturday, July 19 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. At this free event, children will learn about life on a farm, see what it's like to work on a construction site, explore the world of forestry and more. 

For hands-on fun, kids can test their driving skills in a battery-powered Gator® obstacle course or put their muscles to work in a pedal-powered tractor pull. Other special exhibits include a hands-on Little Johnny's Farm with cows that can be milked (not real ones), a petting zoo, and a construction zone to test toy equipment in the sand. Blacksmith demonstrations will also be conducted on site throughout the day. 

Also featured throughout the day will be a variety of informational booths from ag-related organizations including the Rock Island Farm Bureau, Rock Island 4H & Extension, Fischer's Honey Farm, and Country Corner.

The John Deere Pavilion Learn & Play Day is open to the public and is free of charge.
