We got to the
fairgrounds on Saturday afternoon July 2nd and
there was already a dozen or so campers setup
and Crosleys buzzing around. Heard the first one
on the grounds pulled in on Thursday. Was
another great Crosley Nationals, seeing old
friends and making new friends. Finding those
parts you need for your project, maybe a project
that needs you. Week started slow with only a
few events and got busier every day till the
Saturday. Attendance was down from last year,
blame gas prices or whatever, it was still a
good turn out with over 100 cars at the
Fairgrounds during the week, some for sale some
just cruising around early in thee week but had
to leave before the show some didn't get out of
their trailer till Saturday at show time. We had
members come from OR, UT, TX, OK, FL, and many
other states. - Photos of the meet are from
Kelly Gladden, myself and a few other member. I
couldn't be every where and even when I was, a
different view is often better, thanks for the
help. |
