Welcome to the Illinois / Wisconsin State Line Garden Tractor Association (SLGTA) web site. The SLGTA was founded officially on April 15th 2009. We have finally found a home in TWIN LAKES wisconsin thanks to one of our members we are using 2 acres to hold our show and events please keep checking in for show info we are still getting organized (SEE OUR EVENT INFO PAGE) and updated rules (RULES PAGE). We currently have 30 members and news is spreading quickly we will be organizing monthly meetings and events. We have our own eliminator that was built in 2005 to be used at the Lake County Farm Heritage and the Southeast Wisconsin antique power and collectibles society shows, but I wanted to expand and do our own show and events. We joined the National Early Day Gas Engine & Tractor Association (EDGE&TA) in 2009 we are Branch 205 visit their site at www.edgeta.org . We are currently looking for sponsorship for the association and could display banners at our events at Twin Lakes and other events too. Our events are open to all club members in good standing.
