1 Fall, 2015 Welcome to Northern Indiana International Harvester Collectors' Club Chapter #33 Greetings from all of us here at IHCC33!

2 A word from our President, Carl Overmyer.. Carl s Comments Wow! We had an early and timely harvest this year at Overmyer Farms, finishing right before the rain that lasted multiple days. Yields were better than expected from all the rain we had this spring but definitely not a record breaking year. With the crops now harvested and in the bins, we are waiting and hoping for prices to rebound higher. We are now in full-swing getting the fall tillage work finished, bulldozing/excavating, and putting in more tile for next year. This is all in addition to cleaning up the harvest equipment and starting to prepare for next spring. I have plans to squeeze in a few fun projects this winter, including an Adam s road grader based on a Farmall H power plant and a 350 LP. Anyone willing to pitch in is more than welcome, just feel free to give me a call! I am hoping you all will enjoy a great Thanksgiving holiday with your family. I am excited to see all of you at our annual Christmas meeting at Christo s Banquet Hall in Plymouth, Indiana on December 6 th. Don t forget to bring an item to donate for our auction. There will also be the election of 3 members to the board of directors. If you or someone you know has a desire to serve on the board, be sure to get your name on the ballot by contacting me.
