The highlight of the year for the Grand River Antique Society is the Annual Antique Show, held each August.

• This multi-day event showcases a wide variety of antique tractors, vintage farm equipment, and historical displays.

• The show features tractor pulls, lawn and garden tractor pulls, live demonstrations, and exhibits that celebrate agricultural history.

• Tractor pulls give participants the chance to display the power and craftsmanship of their antique machines in friendly competition.

• Lawn and garden tractor pulls invite smaller equipment owners to participate and connect with fellow enthusiasts.

• The event provides opportunities for members and visitors to engage with the community, share knowledge, and promote agricultural heritage.

The Annual Antique Show is a family-friendly celebration that brings people together to honour the legacy of farming and mechanical innovation.

Members are invited to participate in local parades throughout the surrounding towns.

• Assist with decorating the club float, often a hay wagon or other creative display.

• Members and their children are welcome to ride on the float or drive their own tractors in the parade.

• Parades are an excellent way to increase the club’s visibility and presence in the community.

• It’s a wonderful opportunity for families to get involved, and children especially enjoy the experience.

Parades are a fun and meaningful way to connect with the community and promote the club.

Each year, the club organizes a special field trip to a destination of historical significance.

• Members meet at the chosen location for a guided tour or educational experience.

• The trip offers a chance to learn, explore, and appreciate local or regional history.

• After the tour, members enjoy dinner together, making it a memorable and social event.

The annual field trip is a great way to connect with fellow members, discover new places, and share in a unique learning experience.

Club members often attend various shows and tractor pulls in the region.

• Members frequently arrange to meet at these events or travel together.

• Attending other shows is a great way to enjoy the hobby, support fellow enthusiasts, and connect with the broader community.

• These outings also serve as an opportunity to promote our own club show by distributing flyers and making new contacts.

Participating in other events helps strengthen relationships, grow our club’s presence, and share our passion for tractors and heritage with others

We are planning to offer workshops in the future for members who are interested in learning more about antique equipment.

• Topics will include maintenance, repairs, restoration techniques, and general care.

• Workshops will provide an opportunity to share knowledge, learn from experienced members, and exchange ideas.

• These sessions will help preserve the skills and craftsmanship involved in working with antique machinery.

Workshops will be a valuable resource for both new and seasoned members, fostering learning and community involvement.
