Do they have golf cart rental there?

Mark-Mi · Jul 28, 2015

Yes, but I know nothing about it.

John T · Jul 28, 2015

Yes, but you better call ahead and reserve one...... I've been there and its kinda like a HUGE (thousands of them) Golf Cart Show where some antique tractors show up. Wait till you see the golf carts lined up to pay big bucks and go through the gate each day. I wouldn't go unless I had one (I took my own) since they may announce corn picking in the North 40 and later combining beans in the South 40 and they are farrrrrrrrrrrr apart, if walking it may be over by the time you get there lol

Like most shows they do not tell youwhere they are located or how to get there. Think they loose a lot of people attending due to that. I have no Idea what part of the state it is even in but Illinois is just too far from Ohio fo me to make it.

I'd say it is held on the old AFB grounds....

The Rantoul show is Aug 27(Thurs) through Aug 30(Sun). Go to the Half Century web site and go to more, then policies. The center map is for 2013 but has a good explaination of where and what is going on. I understand that some of this may be changed in anticipation of larger crowds and weather. This should be updated, hopefully. YES, you will need wheels, golf cart, 4 wheeler, or people movers, unless you like to walk ALOT!

The Farm Progress show will be Sep 1(Tues) through Sep 3(Thrus). Decatur is 56 miles south on I 57 and west on I 72 to N 22nd St(Rt 48) and left on Brush College Rd. Will be on left (east) side. In the past, the west bound traffic exits at 150 and wind around the country and comes into the show from the southeast (Reas Bridge Rd). Antique tractors have been outside the SW gate a little ways.

But for like me that does not tell direction from town or how far from town.
