John Deere Snowmobiles are indeed welcome!

We need to get a feel for how many people that might be interested in displaying their sleds or memorabilia? (please respond if interested)
There will be a indoor display with memorabilia and select snowmobiles. Depending on how many are interested, we could possibly get all sleds inside a building or buildings for the 3 day event.

Swap meet as well. I have a feeling there will be a lot of JD sled parts at the swap meet!

It's official!! I have made reservations and plan on attending the 50th Celebration in Horicon. Hope to be able to assist Horicon Joe if he needs me. I don't have a number on the sleds I plan to take but would guess at least 2 and up to 4. Thanks everyone and especially Darren Redding ( a good Hoosier) for making the sleds happen at this event.

Hello everyone, I am Darren Redding with the 50 year celebration committee. I want to invite all you JOHN DEERE snowmobile collectors to the big event in July at the Dodge County Fairgrounds between Horicon and Beaver Dam WI. We are celebrating 50 years of the JD lawn and garden tractor and anything and everything made at the Horicon Works. That includes snowmobiles. I would love to see as many sleds as possible at the show.The dates for the show are July 26,27,28. 2013. Horicon Joe is helping us out with the sled stuff so give him a call or myself. My number 765-432-2571.
I hope to see a lot of sled people at the show.
Thanks for your time

Don - I can get the JD-Xperimental to the greater Busco area, but you and the rest of the Amber family will have to join me at Brevin's for lunch. Wanie is buying. :laugh:

Is the brown rooster still hanging out in the parking lot?

Boy, can't turn down an offer like that. Let's get a date set. The rooster disappeared as fast as it appeared. Funniest thing I've seen in years.
