Manager Bill Bart reported, “This is our second year. There were not as many entries this year, but there were more people. Camanche[, IA,] moved their show to this weekend.”
“We’ve done fairly well, and we’ve sold a couple cars today. This is more of a community event and car show this weekend,” he noted.
