Who Is Going To The 2009 WH Show?

[HorseFixer 2,013]

So it looks like 138 days till the WH collectors club show. Who is planning on attending this years show and what are you bringing? Eldon are you planning on setting up the Red Square tent again like last year? I hope to have my 701 restored by then, and plan on bringing my Granddaughters workhorse I got from Tickster. I will also bring my 56 Pond or My RJ-58. This year I will also be staying at the show in the Dukes Stabbin Cabin. What Are you guys plans? :whistle:

[MaineDad 87]

I'm going this year, my first show too. I plan on bringing home a new horse, hopefully a 70's C-160 8 speed. Anyone have one for sale that they are bringing?

[bell 11]

I'll be there!

I, hopefully, will be bringing my 1045, my 633 and the 7-2111 4-wheel wagon...

[Buzz 502]

I'll be there Thursday as usual. I plan on bringing my 854 and Lawn Ranger plus whatever else I find time for. I might even resurrect my 856,Ol' Smokey, or donate some of her organs to my 855 and bring that. I'll be tenting it this year after getting rid of the motor home two years ago and my van this year. This warm weather today definitely has me in the mood for show season. :banana:

Buzz,

Did you and I just email about this??? LOL

Well, this year I am hoping to bring my wife and daughter with me. She'll be two this summer (daughter that is) and she loves her daddy's tractors. What I'm going to bring is up in the air at this point. I'm hoping to have the D250 all set with the Continental Engine transplant. Almost done with that. I suppose the Suburban 551 may also tag along too.

Ill be there. Im hoping to go up a week early and spend some time at E's place and TT's as well (since he has to work weekends now)

I'll be bringing up my two, the B and the C (hopefully with the FEL finished) as well as my BBQ pit... nothing for sale just cooking a bit for some of my RS buddies!

[bowtieguy 334]

Duke...I didn't make any plans to attend this year cause I thought it would be hard to find a place to stay since you probably reserved all of the rooms at the Blue Moon Hotel ....but will have to admit that I'm sure gonna' miss all the good company at the show...I wanted to at least see Jerry crankin' on his ole yellar cow again (Techee engine of course).

PS: for all you first time attendees....call Duke for reservations at the Blue MOON!!

[KyBlue 655]

Oh I should mention I'll be camping...Far away from the Rockin N Rollin Stabbin Cabin ... Hey Duke you bringin earplugs for everybody or is that Stabbin Cabbin Sound Proofed!?!?!?!

[whchris 5]

well guys i believe i will be there. now being it would be my first time i got all the questions but i have heard i can pitch a tent for free? if this is true do i need a reservation anywhere or is it first come first serve? i know these questions have been answered before but since i wasn't going i never really payed much attention now then bringing a tractor may be a task.... i am at my wits end with my c-125 so that's a no it doesn't deserve to go the 702 is awaiting parts in parts and i would not have the time to put it together so..... that makes me think that i should look for a roller and go to harbor freight and get myself a Honda knock off and see how they work. so if anyone has a rolling anything for cheep i would be interested if its semi close to me well catch you guys later and hope to see you there

[TJ 184]

I plan on being there. :thumbs:

[Buzz 502]

i have heard i can pitch a tent for free? if this is true do i need a reservation anywhere or is it first come first serve?

I believe it's still free for Friday night or if you arrive Thursday and camp or stay over Saturday night and leave Sunday morning it's $20.00. Cheap enough. No reservations, first come first served. You can't save a spot for your buddies but a truck or two have been known to be parked in a spot until your buddy gets there. :thumbs:

[Guest fireman]

I'll be there with the wife and kids. We plan on getting there on Thursday and camping at the fair grounds. I will have an RJ58 and maybe the 702 if I can fit it. Hopefully we can get one of the new campsites they put in so we can hook up. We'll be staying in our 2005 Starcraft 215SSO:

After the show we plan on going to Gettysburg and spending a couple of days there.

[jusjeepn 59]

Lisa and I will be there with the 420, the Pink Raider and probably an Electro! Roughing it in the tent!

[Nick 13]

Dad and I might make the drive this year. We have not went the last couple years but the 7 years we did go were never planned until 2 weeks or less before hand. We normally make a trip out of the drive over so dont think I'll be haulin any tractors to the show. :thumbs:

[Brian1045 28]

I'm setting sights on going. This would be my first Garden tractor show. Except for a small one we have here in Spencer.

If anyone has any info, Hotels, camping.best route to get there, etc. to pass along,

Us first timers would appreciate it. :whistle:

[noncritical 5]

I would like to attend Is there any traden or parts for sale there this will be my first time :thumbs:

[kj4kicks 154]

Hey guys, Look through all the show info from last year here:

http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showforum=22

There are several threads covering campsite info, local lodging, and even a bunch of show pics so you can get an idea of the show grounds and parts vendor areas.

Hopefully I'll be able to grab the great spot we had last year.

Gotta figure out how to kidnap Jim to get him comin this year...

[HorseFixer 2,013]

There are plenty of parts, tractors and attatchments for sale! Bring a THICK WALLET! :whistle:

[wallfish 18,076]

This will be my first trip to the big show this year. I still need to buy a trailer but I am planning to bring the 416-8 with the backhoe and the RJ-58. Hopefully I can finish another modified tractor project to bring also. So many projects with so little time!

[HorseFixer 2,013]

Oh I should mention I'll be camping...Far away from the Rockin N Rollin Stabbin Cabin ... Hey Duke you bringin earplugs for everybody or is that Stabbin Cabbin Sound Proofed!?!?!?!

Bringing Henny the Grand Daughter on this trip No Stabbin in the Cabin for me! Maybe I can get Wild Bill to do some baby sitting he can show her how to rebuild an engine on the 4 Star Tractor! :whistle:

[Suburban 550 28]

Duke, We'll be there early Thursday morning. Hope you have breakfast ready when we get there. Bringing along the old 550 and the newly restored 702. I guess we'll be camping in the tent again. If we end up campin' aside ya try to keep the noise to a minimum. :thumbs:

[clintonnut 126]

We're goin!! Bringing the old Dodge M880 with a cummins transplant. 22mpg! The D-250 will be happy in the back of the truck as well as a 16ft trailer loaded with many tractors. I want a spot. Preferably one in the shade but near the swaps. one thats right on the boarder between the swaps and show area thats near a shady tree. Could you guys help??

Thanks

Charlie

P.S. First one to get us a good spot gets something out of the $5 dollar pile!!! :thumbs:

Ray I dunno about the breakfast thing, but will make sure we get campin next to each other. By the time we are all set up will prolly be ready for lunch!

My 17 year old son and I are talking about coming up from VA. I doubt I will bring anything, unless I bring the 520 for a trade, but I would love to meet up with all the Redsquare folks, and put faces with names. Not to mention, all the horses and food. I missed last year, because we had to take my daughter to FL.
