She was a 2019 senior attending Sul Ross University in Alpine Texas, majoring in Natural Resources Management with an emphasis on Range Management. She was working at an internship for the NRCS in Boerne, Texas for the Summer of 2019.

Dori has been pulling tractors with Tri-County Antique Tractor pullers for 9 years, since she was 12. She helps with the sign up sheets and does the hook for the sled. Above she is pictured at the Comal County Fair in New Braunfels, Texas with her 1953 Model 60 John Deere. This was her Grandfather, Roger Bierstedt’s first tractor. He purchased it at Hilbert Implements in Seguin, Texas.

A fine young lady with a great future in agriculture and a tractor that will be pulling for many years to come. Her proud parents are James and Gail Damerau.
