Back 40 Embroidery Show & Shine more photos on page 3
Record 158 Vehicles in Attendance
T
he Back 40 Embroidery Show and Shine was held on Saturday, July 10th in Delisle. It was a beautiful day and it turned out to be a spectacular show. We usually held the Back 40 Show and Shine by the schools, but due to a overwhelming response, we decided to move it downtown to 1st Street West, in front of all the other businesses in town. This gave us added space and also gives our community's fellow businesses more traffic, and hopefully more business. We had 158 vehicles that registered at the show, the most we've ever had! It was an amazing group of vehicles, with lots of returning entrants, as well as lots of new ones! There were cars that came from all over the province from Swift Current to Albertville. Saskatchewan car clubs were also well represented, with members from the Draggins, Dusty Wheels, 567 Club, the Mustang Club, Shriner's, The Shifters, The King's Men, and Klassic Kruisers. It was also amazing to see all the local cars that came out to the show. We have some great vehicles that are from our local area!
We decided that this year we'd change things up and asked Delisle's Mayor, Cary Brunett, to pick a Mayor's Choice, and we, at Back 40 Embroidery, chose our favorite for Back 40's Choice. With so many great cars, Cary had a hard time choosing her favorite, but settled on Neil Doell's 1956 Chevy Belair, from Saskatoon. The Back 40's Choice went to Vic and Diane Loth's 1955 Ford Crown Victoria, from Shellbrook. We are already looking forward to next year's Back 40 Show and Shine! We are hoping for a normal show next year, that we can make bigger and better, without restrictions. If you missed the Show & Shine, go to the Back 40 Embroidery Facebook page and check out lots of pictures posted from The Shifters Car Club, as well as a Facebook live post from Jay Thomas Auto who walked around most of the show. It was an amazing day! Thank you to all the people who brought out their vehicles, everyone who came to look, and to all the businesses in town that went above and beyond to welcome the Back 40 Show & Shine downtown.
Due to pandemic restrictions, we were unable to give out our usual Competitor's Choice and People's Choice awards without handling ballots.
