TRACTORS TALL AND SMALL III
Washington County Museum
Fort Calhoun, Nebraska

Presented by

and Abe's Trash Service, Inc.

FUN FOR
THE ENTIRE FAMILY
 


Over seventy outside displays of antique tractors and machinery lined the street by the park and museum.


The Elkhorn Valley Antique Power Association
trolley shuttled people to guided tours of the
Frahm House and Fort Atkinson.


The Meadowlark Model A Club
displayed some of their cars.


Clowns, Hiccups and Pom-Pom, painted faces
and made balloon animals


Lawn tractors and a miniature bull dozer
joined the exhibits.


There was plenty of food provided by the WCHA
Guild, Presbyterian Youth, and Solomon Lodge. Home
made ice cream by Joel Swanson and his family was a hit.


The pedal pull sponsored by Washington County Bank drew a crowd. Arik Vossler of Little Tuggers brought tractors and equipment from Plymouth, NE, for pullers aged four and up. Bank employees helped with the pull.


John Honaker and Lori Trede returned this year with their Doodlebug composed of a 1928 Model A motor and transmission, 1927 Model T wheels and axles, 1927 Chevy truck parts, and 1908 Buick frame.
