Back 40 Embroidery Show & Shine

The 9th annual Back 40 Embroidery Show and Shine was held on Saturday, July 8th in Delisle. The weather was perfect for a car show, and it showed with the number of entrants that brought their vehicles out. There were a record number of vehicles entered in the show this year, with 172 that registered. It was amazing to see 1st Street West, in Delisle, full of vehicles from all over the province including many local ones from the Delisle/Vanscoy areas. There were many car clubs that brought groups to the Show and Shine. Some of those clubs represented this year were the Draggins, The Shifters, Dusty Wheels, Shriner's, the Mustang Club, and 567 Club.

There are two awards given out at the Show and Shine. The Competitor's Choice award goes to a vehicle that is chosen by all the people that registered their vehicles in the show. This years recipient was Marvin Akister from Saskatoon with his 1957 Chevrolet Convertible. The People's Choice award is voted on by spectators coming to see all the vehicles at the show. The recipient for this year's People's Choice was Deb Gordon from Martensville with her 1956 T-Bird. Congratulations to both of the winners!

Next year will be the Back 40 Embroidery Show and Shine's 10th annual show. We are hoping for another great show and are thinking of a few ideas to make it special.

If you missed out on seeing the Show and Shine, go to Back 40 Embroidery's Facebook page to check out lots of pictures and videos taken at the show. The Shifters Car Club shared some wonderful pictures of the vehicles and even had a great drone video of the show when it was in full swing. Gary The Gear shared a great video that he made for his YouTube channel which was also a wonderful representation of the vehicles at the show. A special thanks to everyone who came out with their vehicles, we can't have a show without the cars!
