2005 YEAR IN REVIEW

SO MUCH HAPPENED IN 2005!!!!!

The Howard County Antique Farm Machinery Club celebrated its 10th year with a multitude of activities. The standard activities took place; the Annual Consignment Sale at the Howard County Fair Grounds, The Annual Wheat Cutting, The spring and fall field trips, The Farm Heritage School Days, and the Annual Farm Heritage Days.

The spring field trip was to supposed to be to the 32nd Annual Tuckahoe Steam and Gas Engine Association Reunion and Show but it rained so much that weekend that the trip was rained out.

The fall field trip was to the Wheeler Village Museum in Westminster, Maryland.

The most exciting event that took place this year was the aquisition of a cite for the Howard County Living Farm Heritage Museum. This year we were pleased to hold the Annual Farm Heritage Days at the new museum cite. The entire club was very excited about this new cite and were working like crazy to get it in shape since it was aquired in August 2005. The club continues to work on the cite and have many projects to undertake in 2006.

Take a look at some of the photos taken during our many activities this year...
