I put together some pictures from past years from Charlie Widlund's open house. I attempt to narrate and make a few mistakes along the way. The M-7 snow machine I referred to as an M-41. Anyway, thought you guys might like to have a look. Especially those members too far away to attend.

IBWD Mike, thanks for sharing your video. Lots of great AC items there.

Here is a weblink to the Widlund Family Museum. It details their annual open house & summer visits by appointments. Their farm is near Palmer, Iowa.

I am a little confused about the 2025 dates for this show. In multiple places, I have seen it stated that this event is the weekend BEFORE the Labor Day weekend every year, but the date I found online for the 2025 show is August 29,30 & 31 which is labor day weekend.

Is this date correct and is it just a one year change and will go back to the weekend before Labor Day after this year or is it a permanent change?

Thanks!

Just got off of the phone with Charlie. The show this year will be on Labor day weekend. The Widlund family has a wedding commitment the weekend before.

Thanks for checking, I put it on my phone calendar and I wanted to make sure I had the correct dates.
