Fall Family Days at the Thumb Octagon Barn

September 10, 2011 by Gera Old Tractor Days

One of our club members, Louis Wehrmann is very active with the Octagon Barn in Gagetown. Today & tomorrow is their Fall Family Days event. This event features hundreds of flea market vendors selling everything imaginable as well as demonstrations of various equipment including a Bay City Shovel and a sawmill. There are also many antique tractors on display and tons of activities and events for the whole family. And all of that is in addition to checking out the immensely cool Octagon Barn itself. If you haven’t been to the barn before, I highly recommend you make the trip.

If you are interested in all the happenings, please check out club member and webmaster, Elizabeth’s review of the 2010 Fall Family Days at the Octagon Barn complete with pictures and info.

Nexteer Family Day 2010 (Formerly Delphi Days)

September 13, 2010 by Gera Old Tractor Days

As it has in the past, the Gera Old Tractor Club participated with a family fun event at a local business, Nexteer Steering. We brought our tractors out to cart people around the parking lot and add a fun element to transportation at the event. The kids love seeing and hearing the old tractors and riding on the barrel ride.

Here are some pictures from the event which took place on 9/11/2010. We hope that we have an opportunity to do this again next year, it is a really fun event.
