Midale celebrates love for vehicles with show and shine

This year saw 46 exhibitors coming from Assiniboia, Coronach, Lake Alma, Regina, the Estevan area and more.

MIDALE — Midale's Main Street was a busy place on Sunday, thanks to dozens of vehicle enthusiasts who brought their rides over for the annual Midale Classy Car Show and Shine.

This year saw 46 exhibitors coming from Assiniboia, Coronach, Lake Alma, Regina, the Estevan area and more.

"We had a good stretch this year, we had a good circumference from all around," said Scott Stabenow, the chairperson of the show and shine committee.

Vehicles ranged from antiques from the 20s and early 30s right to fancy contemporary vehicles.

"We had lots of stuff from the 50s and 60s, some work-in-progress projects, but most of them were done. We had some very beautiful cars, and even from last year we had a lot of different cars show," Stabenow said.

Tim Carlson's 1966 Ford Fairlane was the winner of the Midale Classy Car Show and Shine.

The event found its new home on Main Street last year, and Stabenow said it seems to become their permanent location.

"Main Street seems to be our new place to hold the event. Previously we used to do it up at the school but with the Main Street, it's just a lot more room and seems to work better for this," he noted.

Souris Valley Antique Association introduced a people mover this year, which helped bring guests from fairgrounds over across the tracks, and many visitors got to enjoy the car show.

Thomas-K Welding and Fabricating once again supplied the grill for the barbecue, and Stabenow said if they have any proceeds left after covering expenses, they like to donate to local charities.

Stabenow also thanked everyone involved with the event.

"I just would like to thank everybody that came out. If it wasn't for those people coming out to have a look there wouldn't be a car show."
