Car Show Oromocto High School
Here is all the information I have on the car show at this time. I do not know if there is an entry fee or not. I am still waiting to hear from the person who is organizing it. Our club has been invited to participate, if we wish to. If my car is ready, I will be going. Here’s hoping.
Cheers
John
