RPRU 2013

Even better than the Wal Mart, there's a Harbor Freight store about a mile up the road. Lima is only about 50 miles from me, I've attended several events at the fair grounds there. I'm pretty excited about Red Power being there.
 
Dave - it is an annual gathering of all things IH. This includes tractors, equipment, trucks, IH Scouts, appliances and you name it. If IH made it you can probably find it there. It is held at varioius locations. It is a national event and you can find displayers from all over. If you have never attended one it is worth going.

Second that. It is put on by the National/Worldwide IH Collectors Club. I have had chance to attend one Red Power, it was in Mansfield, OH in 2006. It is the premier International Harvester event, and a tremendous reminder of just how big and diverse IH was. They built way more than Cubs.....

Of course, it will be on the last weekend of June. That's when my model airplane club has its big annual fundraiser event, so though it is close enough to go, I can't...

On the off chance that they have it a week sooner or later, will they have somewhere to park a camper on the fairgrounds, or is that what all the walmart talk was about?
 
Matt,

Typically there is camping/camper facilities available. It depends on the venue.

Not to tell you what to do, but if it is reasonably close to you in 2013, I'd blow off the model airplane club.....the closest roundup to me has been Lebanon, TN.

With the event that close to us, we'll take the motor home early, to assure a campsite. Then take the tractor up later with the P-up.

Matt, they shows typically start on Thursday and my mid day Saturday many guys are packing out. So you could easily come Thursday and maybe Friday depending on your clubs activities. It is quite fun to see all the red iron and talk to other serious collectors. We have been going every year for over 14 years now.
