This five-day event draws a crowd of over 15,000!  It is one of the largest events of it's kind in the country.
Highlights include: Over 400 exhibitors of antique tractors, antique engines, model steam engines and antique cars.

In 2006, over 1600 faithful John Deere admirers traveled to Moline to attend the conference.  They came from 40 states and Canada.  It was an outstanding event and I anticipate the 2008 conference will be even better.  The host hotel and the HI Express are already fully booked and registration has not yet begun.
