THE WATERTOWN, S.D. ANNUAL VINTAGES CAR SHOW WAS HELD ON SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 12th, ON SEVERAL BLOCKS OF KEMP AVE. AND OTHER SIDE STREETS.
AT THIS YEAR’S EVENT THERE WERE FIVE HUNDRED REGISTERED VEHICLES, INCLUDING THOSE FROM SOUTH DAKOTA, NORTH DAKOTA, MINNESOTA, NEBRASKA, IOWA, ARIZONA AND COLORADO.
NUMEROUS AMERICAN MANUFACTURED VEHICLES WERE ON HAND; INCLUDING; CHEVROLET’S FORDS, PONTIAC’S, DODGE, PLYMOUTH, NASH, RAMBLERS, JEEP, TOYOTA, VW, MOTOR CYCLES AND INTERNATIONAL HARVESTERS.
IT WAS AN AMAZING EVENT WITH SO MANY PRISTINE CARS, THAT IT WAS OVERWHELMING, I WALKED OVER THREE MILES OF THE EVENT AND I’M SURE I DIDN’T SEE EVERYTHING.
THAT EVENING CRAIG MATTESON, WIFE DEANNA AND I WENT OUT TO MEMORIAL PARK ON LAKE KAMPESKA, WHERE THE GROUP FED OVER 700 PEOPLE, WITH THE MEAL CONSISTING OF PORK SANDWICHES, SCALPED POTATOES, BAKED BEANS AND ABOUT EVERY SALAD UNDER THE SUN, AS WELL AS DESERT.
AFTER THE MEAL, THE GROUP HELD THEIR POKER RUN AROUND THE LAKE.
WHAT AN EVENT, I WAS SO IMPRESSED, I’M PLANNING ON BECOMING A MEMBER AND COUNTING THE DAYS TO NEXT YEARS CAR SHOW.
