We began the club in 1987,with our first display of tractors at Western Antique PowerLand, west of Brooks, Oregon. 35 people were contacted that had an interest in these old John Deere's, and asked if they would be interested in bringing one or more of their tractors for display at Antique PowerLand, to help celebrate John Deere's 150th year. After this display there was an interest to display again, to meet and talk tractors, farming and other common interest. So the club was formed, called the Oregon Two-Cylinder Club. With the continuing interest in preserving these tractors, our club has continued since 1987 of displaying at Western Antique PowerLand and other shows. The interest in the club has grown, to over 250 members with the interest of preserving and teaching others about how these tractors have helped with farming in this area, and other parts of the world. With this in mind we are raising funds to build a museum building, on the ground of Western Antique PowerLand. The museum will house tractors, equipment, memorabilia and collectables, tools, with pictures on display, a meeting room and a library, so that we can teach the public about history of the John Deere tractors and equipment. We have been given a collection of some of these items to get us started. We are looking for more donations so that we can continue to educate the public and members. We hold bi-monthly meetings either at member's homes or other places of interest. We send out bi-monthly newsletters to all members. The newsletter contains reports from the president, secretary, committees, member stories, tech tips, for sale and want ads, and the locations and times for the next meeting. We also hold an annual auction to help raise funds for the museum. Contact any member for more information about the club and how to join.
