Organisers said after discussion with Strathbogie Shire Council some sections of the event would be shifted from the Seven Creeks Park to the town’s streets because recent wet weather had made the park unsuitable for vehicles and spectators.
Central Victorian Corvettes as well as the Victorian Mercedes Benz, Monaro, Riley, Customline, Saab, Alpha Romeo and Jaguar clubs will have plenty of cars on show as they vie for the best club display award, one of 70 trophies up for grabs.
To celebrate this year’s 1920s theme, taking centre stage will be a 1927 Capitol Chev, a 1923 Austin 7-powered race car and a 1929 Norton motorcycle from Euroa’s Garry MacDonald.
And to mark the show’s 20th anniversary, a full-colour, high-quality 100-plus page pictorial book First Sunday in October will also be launched at the event.
Get a copy: Ray Read spent many, many hours researching and compiling a book to mark the Euroa show and shine’s 20th anniversary.
Author and show vice-president Ray Read said more than 200 hours had gone into writing the book.
“... the show and shine deserves to have its story told, especially to the many exhibitors and spectators who turn up every year,” Mr Read said.
“Included are articles from (the show’s) originator Rob Asquith and his wife Bev. Past president John Mason and current president Ross Holt contributed both stories and a number of entertaining anecdotes from their experiences.”
The book will be for sale for $30 on the day.
As well as hundreds of vehicles, all the usual family entertainment, including live music, kids’ activities, the Euroa mini railway and food and market stalls will be back.
So much to see: Cars, bikes and many other vehicles of all makes and ages will be on show at Euroa this Sunday.
