SILVER LAKE - The good weather on Saturday provided the perfect atmosphere for the Silver Lake Days Tractor Show. John Deere, Farmall, Oliver and Allis Chalmer tractors were all represented well at the show, according to a news release from Echoes of the Past.
Beginning at 8 a.m., tractors and trailers started pulling into the show lot located east of town on Ind. 14. Judging started promptly at 10 a.m. The Best of Show Award was presented to James Peden from North Manchester for his beautifully restored 1970 Oliver 1855. Winning the oldest tractor award, as well as the furthest traveled, was Kevin Hesser. Hesser entered a 1936 John Deere B that has been in his family since it rolled off the factory line. Hesser talks of the heritage of the tractor and how much the members of his family value it.
The Echoes of the Past will have tractors on display, as well as other daily activities, during the Kosciusko County Fair beginning July 7. You can visit the Antique Village at the fairgrounds to view the tractors, observe live sawmill demonstrations, enjoy tractor churned ice cream and more.
