BRANCH 158 MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION

Branch 158 is the Yolo County chapter of E.D.G.E. & T.A. It was founded in 2004 in Woodland when a few local men and women with common interests decided to start an engine club. Membership is growing and the branch regularly participates in many local and regional shows and parades. Branch 158 also holds its own shows. In April, we conduct a two-day 120 mile tractor ride, the Colusa Casino Endurance Run. Each May, the Family Farm Festival, co-sponsored by the Heidrick Ag History Center, shows threshing, plowing, and other old time activities where the public is invited to come and see how things used to be. Each August, exhibits at the Yolo County Fair feature operating engines, tractors, and other old machinery. Each October, the Yolo Tractor Ride is a 24 mile drive in which members drive their old tractors throughout scenic Yolo County.

Members of Branch 158 are dedicated to maintaining a knowledge of and an interest in early American farm equipment. To this end they individually restore and preserve a variety of equipment, participate in local parades and fairs, put on demonstrations at local schools, and support the involvement of youth in these activities. Members hope that by maintaining and exhibiting our country’s heritage in the form of working equipment they can revive the memories of an older generation and help to educate the younger generations.

Branch 158 is a member of the Early Day Gas Engine and Tractor Assn., Inc. Individual dues for principal members are $25.00 per year. Dues for auxiliary members are $17.00 each per year. Spouses and dependent children from 12 to 18 years old of principal members are considered auxiliary members. New members joining during each membership period will be considered members through the end of that period. Those with membership in a different EDGE & TA branch, may join Branch 158 with full membership privileges for $12.00 per year along with proof of membership (i.e., photocopy of card) in the other branch. Dues become due and payable on January 1st and are delinquent if not paid by April 15th.
