The South Florida Volkswagen Club
Show 'n Shine XXIII

Mills Pond Park, Ft Lauderdale, FL

April 2, 2006

Show 'n Shine XXIII is now history. The quality of the weather was judged delightful with temperatures around 80 and a clear sky. The return to the Mills Pond venue gave the show a much more comfortable feel, with lots to do, great facilities and room for all entrants. The quality of the cars on display prompted lots of superlatives, and again showed you've been working hard on them all winter. We thank all who participated. About 94 cars were on the field to be judged, plus a number of vendors set up shop. Member's cars were also on the field and visitor parking was full of VW's whose owners just came to check out the event.

As usual the event went at a crisp pace. Despite the time change, and keeping registration open for an additional quarter hour, classing was completed at 11:30, and judging began shortly thereafter. The awards presentations began at 2:30 sharp. and by 3:30, most smiling participants were on their way home with their personalized plaques.

We thank the Antique Automobile Club of America, Fort Lauderdale Region for their help in judging, the staff of Mills Pond Park for being so helpful and accommodating and of course our sponsors who made the event possible.

The scenes below should give you a flavor of the show.
