๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿšœ A Special Musical Attraction at Patrick Ranch Museumโ€™s Vintage Iron & Threshing Bee! ๐Ÿšœ๐ŸŽถ

Join us on Saturday, June 13, for a rare opportunity to hear a magnificent 43-note Tangley Calliope, originally built in the 1920s!

Renowned Northern California organist Dave Moreno will be performing from 10:00 AM to 1:30 PM, filling the ranch with the unforgettable sounds of this historic steam-era musical instrument. The calliope's bright, cheerful music was once heard on riverboats, traveling shows, and fairs across America, and now you can experience it in person at Patrick Ranch Museum.

Along with the music, enjoy antique tractors, vintage engines, threshing demonstrations, and a day celebrating our regionโ€™s rich agricultural heritage.
