Thanks goes out to all volunteers, but we must start by thanking Craig Foster for all of his work this past year! It ended up being a beautiful day. Of course a car show wouldn t be much without participants and their beautiful and interesting rides! And of course the spectators that came to see our event! Thanks to the groups of volunteers that formed to make each part of the show successful..trophy making, cooks, foods and cooler crews, crew for securing sponsors, computer programming, transportation, goody bags, preregistration, registration & registration packets, web hosting, promotion & advertising, flyers, shirts, parking, setup and cleanup, dash and trophy plaques, Pioneers Park, coffee & donuts crew, show entrance and classification crew, judging, bookkeeping and so much more! Thanks to each and every one of our volunteers!! You all worked hard to make this show a success! Thanks to Loren Shauer of Shower Tunes for the great music announcements of our winners and information throughout the day and to Malcolm s Tower Hall Catering for keeping us legal in the lunch line.
