Field Day of the Past

Field Day of the Past Field Day of the Past is a family event sponsored by the Rockville-Centerville Steam and Gas Historical Association.

This show mixes the warm, down-home atmosphere of the county fairs of yesteryear with exhibits and displays of museum quality. In the summer of 1992, a few steam and gas engine collectors gathered for an informal discussion on the possibity of hosting a steam and gas engine show in Goochland County, VA. They organized the Rockville-Centerville Steam and Gas Historical Association and hosted its fi

rst show, which attracted 5,000 people. The show expanded into a 3 day event, held the third full weekend in September and draws a crowd of approximately 35,000 people annually. In 2021, Field Day of the Past moved from Goochland to Amelia to host its annual event.

Plow & Plant on Saturday turned out to be more plow and less plant. Volunteers disked and plowed the field to prepare the land. Volunteers decided to delay plowing until it rains and the ground gets warmer. We had a good time anyway! Thanks to those volunteers who turned out to participate.
