Kiwanis Show, Standish

As most of you know, the Kiwanis Show, Standish ME is this coming Sunday. Since the Kiwanis flier did not include any contact info, several folks have asked me about the classes.

I am hoping we can convince the Kiwanis folks to "upgrade" their classing structure for next year, because this year's structure is lacking in several respects. But here are this year's classes:

Hot Rods (I think they mean street rods)
Antiques thru '45
'46-'54
55-59
60-69
70-83
Work in Progress
Special Interest
Foreign
Trucks
Rat Rods (not sure what criterion they use to differentiate this from hot rods)
Muscle

As you can see, there is a class for "work in progress", though very few, if any, ever show up at a show, while 100 years of trucks are all in one class. There are other problems with this years' structure, but you get the point. So, when you get to the show (to get your HotKarz trophy :o), you may want to pull a Kiwanis staff member to one side and suggest they improve the classing for next year. I'll be doing the same. If enough of us make the suggestion, they would find it difficult to ignore it.

Here's a thought - what do you think of the idea of show organizers including a SUGGESTION BOX with forms, so y'all can let 'em know what changes they may want to consider. Let me know by voting on it (above left).
