Louie’s obituary: https://www.barnesfamilyfunerals.com/obitua/louie-mchaffie/ On behalf of the Ozarks Steam Engine Association, we extend love and sympathy to the Mchaffie family as we all mourn the loss of Louie McHaffie. At 90 years young, Louie was not only the last charter member of the Ozarks Steam Engine Association, he owned the oldest steam traction engine on the grounds an 1893 Peerless with wooden spokes. Louie currently served as Director Emeritus for the Association. We are going to miss his stories and that smile. He was a friend to all. Visitation will be at the Barnes Family Funeral Home in Ozark - Thursday, October 29, 2020 at 1:00 PM. Graveside service - Friday, October 30, 2020 at 2:00 PM. Please remember his family in your prayers.

Draft horse plowing and wagon rides both days. Huge flea market featuring antiques, tools, crafts, home decor, baked goods, farm produce, furniture, saddles and... tack, seasonal decorations, engine and equipment parts, custom clothing and jewelry. Open invitation to all chuck wagons, black smiths, harness makers, gas engine collectors, campfire musicians, and homesteading demonstrations! This is an interactive historical reenactment event; helpers and questions are welcomed! The event focuses on historical agriculture, homesteading, and pioneer activities. Demonstrations and re-enactments are needed to make this a great event for our spectators. Think big or think simple but please join in and participate this year because the interest in this year’s Festival is huge after the success of the August show. If you are associated with a club or group of musicians, theater, performers, artists, quilters, gardeners, historians, or crafters, please extend our invitation to exhibit and demonstrate their skills with us. We would love to involve area Church youth, FFA, 4H, scouts, and homeschool groups, but we need your help getting this message to them! Our regular activities include making apple butter, lard rendering, pressing apples for cider, broom making, shelling corn, grinding grain, and cooking by steam engine. We have 50 open air acres to spread out on and accommodate these activities, all we need is your participation and input to make this a great event for our community and visitors! Comment below or call the contacts listed on the flyer. Thanks for your support! Free camping available from Wed. to Tuesday if desired. See more
