The 2024 Cremona Show and Shine was a great success!

Lots of cars, lots of people, beautiful day, great food and lots of activities  and everyone having fun! We had 236 registered vehicles (but are sure there were quite a few more) and the cars get better every year. We had a live band and a really good breakfast and lunch provided by local organizations. And a farmers market. And a bouncy castle for the kids. And thanks to all the volunteers that made this possible. The '59 Chev Apache prize truck was won by Duane and Diane Lockie from Calgary and they loved it.  And the other prize packages were all very well received.  Seems to get better every year and we are looking forward to next years show.  See Nice Old Cars for lots of car photos - https://niceoldcars.ca/cremona-sep-7-2024-174-photos/ and My Star

Cremona's 12th annual Show and Shine is a go on Saturday, September 7th from 9:00 AM till 3:00. Last years Show and Shine was a big success and we hope to be even more successful this year. A great day for the whole family.  Our prize car is a legendary 1959 Chevrolet Apache with a 283 V8 Engine and manual 4 speed transmission. Runs great! Original color was cyan like the poster - now primed for a new paint job.

Bring your favorite vehicle and your family and friends - its a great way to spend a Saturday in September. We also have a 50/50 and other prize draws, a kids bouncy castle, a soap box derby, farmers market, auto parts swap meet, vendors, pancake breakfast, BBQ lunch and lots of other food.
