Show will feature antique farm vehicles, tools in action
For a glimpse of old-fashioned farm power, plan to attend the 72nd annual show of the Tri-State Antique Engine and
Threshers Association, July 31-Aug. 2 in Bird City.
Attendees will be able to marvel at more than a dozen operating steam engines and gas engines, as well as demonstrations of wheat binding and threshing; a sawmill, tractor pull, kids activities, historic buildings, quilts, a printing press, and chuck wagon breakfast round out the activities. Collectors may bring their items to display. Those traveling with an RV may park it on the grounds, which offers a shower house.
