History roars to life! The National Pike Steam, Gas and Horse Association was created in 1980 by five men who donated five acres of land to begin the show: Bob Livingston, Dean Red, Linsey Gillis, Thomas Weaver and Ed Neal. Red used his dozer to make a road into the show grounds, while Gillis had a sawmill and several other pieces of machinery that was used for displays and demonstrations. Weaver’s shingle mill and several tractors also went on display and Neal was in charge of the entertainment at the show.  

Today, the National Pike Steam, Gas and Horse Association has grown to over 100 acres and 600 members who dedicate their time and expertise to making this family friendly event showing antique tractors, trucks, cars, engines and construction equipment happen each and every year. The event also features live entertainment, food booths, craft vendors and a flea market.

Ticket Prices:

 $7.00 per person
Free for Children Under 12
