Summer PGR Show Cancelled in Penfield, IL

I am sad to post that the PGR Summer Show hosts, I&I Tractor & Engine Club has found it would be in the best interest of all involved to cancel the Penfield, IL show. The Governor of the State of IL does not give much hope of the State opening up before the July show would have taken place.

With the cancellation of the PGR Summer Show in Penfield, IL, The Prairie Gold Rush will be attending the Mid American Threshing & Antique Show in Tipton, Indiana August 6 - 9! There is no admission fee into the show, one of the main events that everyone enjoys is out 5.3 mile tractor drive through downtown Tipton. This years feature tractor will be Minneapolis Moline with the tent being located in the center of the fairgrounds. There will also be a muscle tractor pull and an antique auction (any one can add items to the auction). There is camping available as well as a motel in Tipton, East St Inn and also have hotels about 15-30 mins out in Kokomo and Westfield. If you have any question you can call or text Chantel Calvin 317-385-7036. Hope to see everyone there!
