Bruce, The Puget Sound Antique Tractor & Machinery Association show is July
31- Aug.3 at Berthusen Park, 8837 Berthusen Rd., west of Lynden, WA. The
show is featuring GOTO (Gathering of the Orange; Allis Chalmers). Darryl
Krause is organizer. A 42 mile tractor drive along the Pacific coast is
planned for July 30; normally insurance is required to participate? Tractor
pulls every night. A 500 horsepower Allis-Chalmers Corliss steam engine is
on the grounds, it was used to run a drawbridge in the city of Seattle. The
AC banquet (a standard feature at GOTO shows) is Saturday evening; these are
interesting and educational if you are an AC enthusiast, $25/person. Daily
show hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Admission is $7 for adults, $3 for
children ages 8 -12., $5 for seniors age 60 & older, season passes are
available. Article in Old Allis News does not state anything about costs
for exhibitors. Website is www.psatma.com. Contact Krause 360-393-7760.
Darryl is a congenial, hard working guy and has several D-21 AC tractors. I
met him several years ago at Tulare, CA GOTO. His D-21 blew down that
pulling track. From Darryls posts on allischalmers.com, he (and his
coworkers) have spent many hours in an effort to insure this show is a huge
success.
Don't know if this is the show you were inquiring about; hope so. Herb
