Tractor Show!

Tractor Show @ Boy's & Girl's Club, Benton, TN. Saturday, September 18, 2021 at 6:00 AM.

Show is located about 3/4 mile off of Hwy 411 in Benton, TN. Located on Parksville Road.

Should be great weather according to the forecast. Mostly antique tractors, if not exclusively. Great opportunity for city kids to see the old stuff and for adults to remanence about grand-dad's old tractor. Admission is free! Doesn't get any better than that, IMO. 

Should anyone need info about the area or restaurants, etc, feel free to ask!

I would love that, but it’s a bit far for me. Thanks for telling us though!

I love old machinery,  but it's  a bit far for me too. Enjoy.

If you like old tractors, check out Discovery Park in Union City. They have a huge display of old tractors going back to early steam power. 

Discovery Park is one of those little known gems in our state. A wonderful Museum covering many aspects of history. But I warn you, if you go, be there when they open in the morning. Otherwise, you won't have time to see everything.

I’ve driven by it several times, but for some reason or another, never stopped.

I’ll have to check it out sometime.

Have you ever been in the museum inside the Dixie Gun Works building? I think they charge a dollar to tour it. It hasn’t been maintained as it should have been, but there is some really cool stuff in there.

I've been to Dixie Gun Works several times. But no, never really had the time to tour the museum.  I thought that was just cars?
