Description of Special Events

The club takes one fall trip where we tour a tractor collection or an Ag based business that pertains to most of our majors. We also take a spring trip at the end of the year where we usually leave on a Friday and come back on a Saturday. We have been to several places such as the Keller Collection in Wisconsin, the Jon Kinzenbaw Collection, Farmall Land, the Charles City Museum, and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
