History/The Story: Sicamous Car Show & Shine

Managed by two local enthusiasts the show initially started as a small collection of cars that were exhibited in the Rec Centre.
The show evolved over 10 years, managed by two local enthusiasts.
A lot of the resourcing of assets and people was centric on the Rec Centre.
In 2017, the original directors, George and Wayne announced they would no longer manage the car show.
All remaining amounts of money were channeled back to the society for donations.
The historic statistics indicate the participant count was about 200 vehicles (a small drop to 186 in 2017) and 1200 spectators.
Worth noting is that some in the community suggest the car show is a symbolic start to the summer season for Sicamous.

Update:

Three main community activists have volunteered their services in an effort to formalize BC Society and revive the car show for 2022.
Don Houle: An accomplished Project Manager, Materials Manager including Logistics and procurement services Community resource supporting numerous events and organizations.
Dave Stickle: A successful entrepreneur who currently owns and manages The Malakwa Burner. A motorsports enthusiast since 1999, Dave is experienced in car racing and Nitro motorcycle racing.

Along with the directors we have organized a support committee incorporating 8 additional resources for planning and execution, today we have held 2 meetings.

The society is worked with a local vendor (inkx) to produce hardcopy posters, draw tickets, and various other collateral materials.

Through the resources of SysGen, we have secured the domain name www.sicamousshowandshine.com incorporated a new logo, and constructed the basic building blocks of a website.

The directors have met with nearly 10 local businesses (8-hour exercise) to present and discuss sponsorship, in addition, we have solicited great feedback.
