Show and Shine welcomes 85 entries

By Eric Callbeck Meota

Here we are in Moose Jaw after an uneventful trip. We saw some grain harvesting occurring south of Davidson; about 12 combines in total were visible from the highway. Some of the stems seemed to be around a foot in length so hope their rocks were picked in the spring. So much for our fearless leader guaranteeing Canada would produce a maximum harvest to help offset the Ukraine shortfall.

Marcel and Annette Duhaime travelled to Grand Prairie this weekend to watch their granddaughter compete in the Western Canada Softball Championship.

Albert and Carol Huys welcomed their family from the Cayman Isles. Always great when they can make the effort to come home from such a distance.

Just a note of caution to the elderly: some high-pressure salespeople dropped by to sell their goods. They totally misrepresented the scope of an order, to the tune of three times the value. Luckily no contract was signed.

Meota hosted a car show on the July 29 weekend. Good weather complimented the show.

There were more than 85 exhibits. Vehicles ranged in age from an eightcylinder Cadillac of the 1920s to moderately new units of the current century. Wonderful of these exhibitors to show their hundreds of hours of labour to us so we can relate to which cars we owned or could relate directly to.

Mustangs and Trans Ams definitely caught our focus.

We took in a car show at Radisson. It was a bit bigger than ours, with about 125 entries and with a few showing at both locations. A hearty pat on the back to the organizers for doing a good job in getting ours started. Radisson was looking for more volunteers to keep things going, so step forward people, it’s a community project.

Activities for the week saw the canasta group with five full tables. The top team were Eric Callbeck and Lillian Serenko. Second place went to Albert Huys and Bev McCrimmon. In third place were Arlene Walker and Gail Hilderman. Tuesday afternoon bridge had Anne M. Wallbilling and Vern Iverson in first. Second went to Barb Mitchell and Joeann Wiens.

Seniors golf on Thursday morning had the Conrad Bernier team with Louise Goodheart, Nor-
