It’s been a very busy summer at Camrose and District Centennial Museum. However, one of the most popular annual activities at the museum is yet to take place.
On Sunday, September 17th from 12:00 noon until 5:00 p.m. almost every vehicle or piece of machinery capable of running, or in good operating condition, will be fired up and, when possible, displayed in action. The highlight of Machinery Day will inevitably be the live threshing demonstration. This will be your chance to relive farm life a century back in time. The work was dirty, back-breaking and dangerous. This and other portrayals of a different way of life from yesteryear will leave you fascinated and better educated, but likely not jealous, in view of the struggles our ancestors experienced on a daily basis.
