There are food vendors on site but club will have some drinks and snacks available.
If interested in coming up Friday, there is a special event happening here. A “Tractor Cade” is arriving from Creston, NE and they are having a cream can supper for everyone who is out there. I was told there will be eight cream cans of food available to feed people. A barn dance will follow the supper.
If you want to stick around until Sunday, there are events on that day also.
There was a very active Hudson dealer in Albion which is close to Petersburg, so do not be surprised if someone looking at your Hudson will have a story to tell you about the Hudson someone in their family had years ago.
