Well the show is over.. and boy was it cold..

I just wanted to thank everyone who showed up and helped out..

TONS of you guys stepped up way before the show to support with donations!
Everyone was ready to help all weekend end..

Chrispy stayed in the booth counting ballets most of the day..

etc.etc.etc.. The DLK was very helpful and I thank you..

TOP NOTCH was fun again.. we counted 41 cars before the cruise showed and they had 29 in their group..
so about 70.. it was pretty cold for a lot of people so we were really short of the 100 I was hoping for.

Officialy at the show we had 198 cars from what I can gather not counting the cars that didn't register.
I think this year the SWAP was MEGA it took over the whole back strip and flowed into the middle..down at the end..
since it is free there is no registery for them but from the looks of it .. I'd guess around 30 or so.. Swappers
which to me is awesome makes for something to do..

bounce house was great for kids and the TWINKY eating contest was a hit again..

show started at 11 but by 10:30 we were in full swing.. so we are going to change the time next year by a lot..
plus it will help get everyone home in a timely manner.. if we end by 2 or 3 for now on..

THE DLK took home most of the awards.. CONGRATS...

anyways... THANKS GUYS... I had a great weekend.. I rather just hang out myself.. but show prep can make for some busy days..
