Scenes From Our 2006 Show
Eastern Shore Threshermen's 2006 show was held on August 4, 5, 6.
We had extremely hot, humid weather during the week leading up to our show, but it "cooled" down to the upper 90s on Friday. It was still hot, but we managed to have a good show in spite of the heat and humidity. There are some more photos of our 2006 show on the Kid's Page.

The baler seems to have fallen behind in its work... but the baling crew caught up by noon Sunday using this McCormick-Deering 10-20 tractor as power to operate the hand-fed, hand tie stationary baler.

We are an equal opportunity volunteer organization and family is very important to all of our members. Here, sawyer Timmy Engle is being assisted by his cousin, Shelley Hall, while another cousin, Chris Engle offbears. Shelley's husband, Jamie, is operating the engine.
