ELMWOOD, WI – The Crain-Ottman American Legion Post 207 participated in the Olson Antique Tractor Show festivities on July 12 and 13. We would like to thank every member of the Olson Family for their generous hospitality and this great opportunity to raise money for our Youth and Community Projects. We’d also like to thank all the community members who stopped by our booth to purchase meals and to participate in the 50/50 Raffle each day. Our Friday raffle winner was Joel Eckert and Saturday Raffle winner was Stephanie Kerns.
This was our best year to date at the Olson Antique Tractor Show, despite the two terrific downpours Saturday afternoon that finally washed us out. The Legion Members always have a good time meeting and chatting with Old Friends and New Friends as they stop by the booth.
Post Members manning the booth this year were (left to right) Dave Hauschildt, Allan Baier, Jim Bammert, Pat Hines, Dean Marsh, Tom Winkler, Jim Baier. Not pictured Jerry Buerkle and Jerry Thompson (photographer).
