Shows and Meetings

BF Avery Collectors and Associates holds two events each year at various locations, a Summer Show and a Winter Meeting.

The Summer Show is hosted by a local tractor club that invites the B. F. Avery Collectors and Associates to participate in their show.   The B. F. Avery family of tractors and implements are billed as a “FEATURED.”   Anyone and everyone is invited to exhibit your B. F. Avery family of items, i. e., tractors, implements and any other B. F. Avery paraphernalia,  at the show.  If you are not a member, we will be delighted if you decide to join our organization.  If you are a member of a local club and would like more information on hosting our club in a summer show, then please give Brian Young a call at 419-651-5657 or email at averyred1947@yahoo.com

The Winter Meeting is usually hosted by a club member in their hometown area.  It typically is a two day affair with the first day, usually a Friday, for socialization among the members and often includes touring highlight(s) of the area, tractor related or otherwise.    Then the annual business meeting is held on the second day, usually a Saturday.   Members are always welcome to bring their tractors and equipment for display.  If you would consider hosting a Winter Meeting, the board can give you help and ideas. We just need a place, preferably in  the winter or early spring.  The date is up to you.  We like to keep a reasonable time spread between the Winter Meetings and Summer Shows when possible.  Please give Brian Young a call at 419-651-5657 or email at averyred1947@yahoo.com (or contact  any board member) to talk about it. We’d all love to come and visit the Warm States in the Winter!
