We could not have asked for a better day or a better event or a better club turn out for our annual signature event, our participation in the Stanley Fair.
We could have had our own car show at the Canadian Tire NS meeting spot where we had a wonderful turnout! It was one of our best turnouts in quite some time. The top down drive from there to the fair grounds was wonderful, especially along the Nashwaak River then onto English Settlement Rd with its long and winding forested roads all made for a great start to the day.
Arriving at the Fair we were greeted by Larry and Sandi our organizers and in a short while we were guided to our parking area. Owing to the large number of our cars and the fact we had to share the display area with a semi truck made for a tight squeeze. A small issue really in the overall experience of all the fun happenings at the fair. I think everyone had a great time with an array of good food outlets, just the wondering about, sharing stories with others, chatting with the fair goers about our cars and so many other activities including of course the sheep shearing which everyone should attend at some point! Oh yes, Joe and Pat brought their VW Van which became almost like home base and certainly provided many of us with some shaded comfort from the hot sun!
Thanks to all of you who attended this event. I'm sure the fair organizers and certainly those fair goers who viewed our cars enjoyed the experience of having us there. I know I did!
Lets look forward to doing it again next year. Perhaps we should show up in a Canadian theme in support of this great country we live in?
Take care everyone,
Gary
