8th Annual Canadian Hudson Meet info from Steve Walsh
Dear Hudnuts,
Please mark your calendars. There is a change of venue for this years 8th Annual Canadian Hudson Meet. Sean Wetherall has graciously agreed to let me host the 8th Annual Canadian Hudson Meet this year in Cardston Alberta. Show dates are the 24th & 25th of July 2009.
Cardston is located a short distance from Waterton National Park and just 10 minutes north of the Babb, Montana border. We are 45 min south west of Lethbridge, Alberta.
We feel this location will have the advantage of encouraging more Hudson, Essex and Terraplane owners from the B.C, Alberta, Saskatchewan and the NW US to attend.
The show will be held in conjunction with the Temple City Cruisers annual show, of which I am the club President. I am also a proud member of the HET.
HET Prs. Mike Cherry has indicated he will try to be at the show on his way back from the national in Pontiac.
This show is a two day event starting on the Friday evening and will include Friday evening Registration, cruise of downtown Cardston. A display by the "Full Tilt Boogie" a wheel stander, followed by a drive in live music dance with a rock & roll 50's & 60's theme.
The Saturday will include a all car parade, followed by the show and shine.
The Temple City Cruisers show has established itself as a destination show with awesome draw prizes and a friendly, fun and welcoming atmosphere. All styles of cars are welcome and there is an amazing variety from turn of the century steamer cars to Lamborghini's and everything in between. We consistently receive comments like: " This is the best car show I've been to in 25 years" and "We love the friendly atmosphere".
Last year we had 211 cars on the grass. The setting is picturesque, held in the Lion's Park, across the creek from the World Famous Remington Carriage Museum (voted Canada's best indoor attraction). http://www.remingtoncarriagemuseum.com/
The highlight of the show is that we give away a car to a lucky draw winner. Last year we gave away a 56 Chev pickup and this year we are giving way a very nice 2002 Chev 35th Anniversary Camaro ragtop. The car is in great condition and very original. Just think you could be taking it home!
We encourage vendors and informal swap meets, for which we do not charge a fee. Tables are available upon request free of charge.
Please visit the following websites for more information including The Temple city Cruisers website, local attractions, hotel and camping/ RV options. Our Lee Creek campsite is literally across the creek adjacent to the Carriage Museum and is full service and very picturesque.
