Harvest Celebration & Antique Tractor, Engine & Equipment Show

 

The Powell Gardens Tractor, Engine & Equipment Show was held on Fri.- Sun., October 4-6 in a beautiful setting.  I guess you could say it was “Cool” and “Cool”. one “Cool” for the weather and another one for the show.  International was the feature tractor with many other brands on display.  Other activities included:  small engines display, miniature machine display, lawn mower display, parade of power, pedal tractor pull, tractor games and many other activities organized by the host.  The GKCTCC had a large display of tractors.  Approximately 17 club members brought one or more tractors or helped with other activities.  Thanks to Powell Gardens for a “Cool” show on a “Cool” weekend.
