I am a Farmall nut. I didn't grow up on a Farmall but other than that, I'm into it. The tractors, heritage, the whole nine yards. A couple of years ago I joined my state's IH Collector's chapter and attended my first and only meeting so far. It appeared to me that if you weren't in the "click" or already knew someone you were just out of luck. Don't get me wrong I am not a shy person, but this is the toughest crowd I've ever been around. It was as if I was dressed as Bozo the Clown. I guess the one thing that really got me was that the president nor any of the officers or the host member greeted me. This is not a large membership, there were about 50-60 people at this meeting. I would think that in a 4-5 hour period, as president you could figure out if there were new members or visitors there and take time to welcome them. How are we going to pass IH tractors and heritage to the next generation if we don't talk to them. Of course my enthusiasm for Farmalls hasn't lessened but I have had a bad taste in my mouth for two years. Am I wrong? Please give feedback.
