What a great weekend it was from the good weather to all the hard work done by so many. There was no less then 5 people that brought out multiple vehicles. They came from as far away as Ottawa and even from Bruce Mines just outside Sault Ste. Marie. We had members and non members helping in every area. Thank you to the people for helping to put up the tent and even to an unexpected visitor from the newly acquired M4 Sherman from the Military Technology Museum. I knew as soon as I saw the Sherman show up my chances of winning the peoples choice award for my WC56 command car was done. It wouldn't matter how much I stuffed the ballot box the tank would be the overwhelming favourite. The best of show went to Barry Churcher with his C15TA. The best display went to the Vintage Signals Team with a mobile military kitchen as a close second. The furthest distance travelled once again belongs to Angus Bussineau from Bruce Mines with the Hagglunds. Many thanks to Jeff Armitage and Dennise for setting up the kitchen and the ladies that served and prepared burgers, hotdogs, coleslaw and the best corn I have had all year. Thanks to Terry Witiuk for the movies system for the evening and the rope spicing lessons. I know I will miss someone so thanks to all that participated and visited our fall 2017 rally !

I knew I would forget to mention someone in my previous comments and I most likely still am going to. First and foremost we can't forget our hosts at Steam Era. They have been nothing but receptive to our presence. They give us everything we need and want and I just want to say publicly "thank you" to all of them and to the great united effort it takes to make a weekend like that work. Also I need to name the other two ladies that prepared and served the food. My wife Karen Fisher and Brenda Gabel along with Dennise. They both took the day to help us as they did in the spring at Aquino. Also it can't go without a shout out Robin Craig for providing the desserts and the rope whipping lesson! Robin I am hooked !

Looks like a great event guys! I hope to be able to attend one of these years.
Robin: My monitor was getting banged up from flipping it over on its side to look at your photos (nice photos by the way - that crushing setup is pretty cool).

If anyone wishes to donate their Iltis next year, the crushing theme can be demonstrated with the Sherman . . .

I quote our leader Les Fisher from his post where he states "Also it can't go without a shout out Robin Craig for providing the desserts and the rope whipping lesson! Robin I am hooked !"
Les, I have been hooked on desserts for years!

Looks like it was a great show.
Can I assume that this show will be on again this year? I plan to go there and have a look, if all goes well maybe even bring a vehicle.
I am planning my summer and would like to attend.
