Major County Historical Society

 

A 160-acre farm 11/2 miles east of Fairview on State Highway 58 is the home of Major County Historical Society and Museum. The grounds encompass a museum, the Veteran’s Memorial, a one-room schoolhouse, the Orient Depot, the BlueFront Hotel, a turn-of-the-century house, and the Avenue of Memories—a brick walk engraved with names of people, businesses, and organizations that have been important to the growth of Major County over the past 100 years.

The society sponsors a combined annual event in September— The Two-Cylinder Tractor Show two days of parades and demonstrations of antique tractors and equipment in action, and the Old Time Threshing Bee, two days of yester-year-activity, style shows, antique cars, “farmer” competitions and great food and music. They provide low-cost family fun that is a history lesson for youngsters and a journey down memory lane for older folks.

Visit Fairview during the 5 7 Major County Threshing Bee and for the antique Two-Cylinder Tractor Show. RV park and camping are available.
