RECAP - 2013 Summer Show in Eveleth
The summer 2013 show is now behind us and will be remembered fondly by those who attended. This didn’t happen by chance. It was the hard work of event coordinators Sue & Jim Sailer that made the weekends activities flow smoothly. Yes, and the weather was
perfect and the Super 8 Motel site was fantastic.
Indeed, on Saturday afternoon, we were visited by many who were returning from a car show in nearby Virgina, MN. With the colorful old snow machines on the hill, many pulled in and received an abject lesson on our hobby. After all, our mission is to preserve,
restore and demonstrate.
