Comments:For sale to anyone interested. Mom sold the home farm and I need to find storage room. So regetfully parting with 3 century old wagons. All have wooden spooked wheels & wooden hubs and on rubber 16" tires. 1 is a 16' flat rack, another just a running gear and the last a retanguler grain wagon which holds about 100 bu. Very reasonable to the right appreciative buyer. I'm located 2 miles west of Watford.

Comments:The hosting of the National Hart Parr International gathering to coincide with our 50th anniversary was such a resounding success. It is a testimonial to the many hours and years of decidated hard work from our past executive under the guidance of our Past President, Roger Woods. Praise is well deserved to all of them!

I am rather perplexed to notice, upon review of our web site, that last year's show has received little or no mention and that the comments of our outgoing President have been deleted. Surely this is an oversight!

Comments:I am a retired professional engineer,born in Saskatchewan,but have lived in Australia since 1973. I spend a lot of time working as a volunteer at Scienceworks ,mostly restoring old machinery. Last year I returned to Canada on holiday. I had a photo of a threshing outfit my father once owned. I took it to Wetaskawin,and one of the staff there identified it as a George White and son. They had a similar one at their museum so I had a good look at it. It is quite different from the engines we have here in Australia. in some respects.

Comments:CONGRAGULATION to the WOSTA on celebrating a terrific 50th anniversay show.
There were great crowds in attendance on Friday and Saturday, and even with a bit of rain on Sunday there were still many dedicated exibitors/spectatators braving the elements.
I heard the tractor caravan on Thursday was a great success, and I know the kids really enjoyed searching in the straw pile for that treasured money. What a wonderfull way for kids to have so much fun.
Great to see so many familiar faces once again, and meet many more great people.
These shows take a lot of hard work and hours by many volunteer's to put together.
CONGRAGULATIONS once again to everyone, and continued success in the future years ahead.

I think this was a great choice, and the new location seemed to work out well for everyone. Heard nothing but positive comments during the weekend.
Lots of space and room for continued growth too.
The breakfast in the dining hall was EXCELLENT, and a fantastic value for the money. My sincere appreciation to the Forest Fair ladies for a wonderful job.
Great to see many familiar faces. Thank You to Harley, Carole and family for their generous hospitality over the weekend.
My best wished for continued success go out to the board and membership.
I'm looking forward to the 50th celebration reunion in 2007.

Comments:Hi,

I am Stewart Hunters grandson, John. I enjoyed looking at your web site. I have many fond memories of attending "The Steam Show" as a young boy with my grandparents. I remember selling pop with my cousins from a ramshackle booth that we helped to assemble with Grampa and selling souvenirs out of a similar booth with my Grandmother, Clara Hunter. We used to love the parade and riding on my grandfathers John Goodison engine. It was always a great end to the summer!

I have many other memories - all good. Good luck with your new location.
