Warman SK, May 16 2018 - Car Show hosted by the Saskatoon 567 Club - Kick Off to Summer

Planning for an event best served in sunshine is a bit of a gamble on the prairies. In a place that puts "Land of the Living Skies" on their license plates, everyone around here knows you don't bet the farm on the weather. After a particularly long and lingering winter, central Saskatchewan skipped spring and jumped straight into summer forest fires. Saskatoon 567 Club's Kickoff to Summer summoned friends for fifty-five fifty six and fifty seven Chevrolets from a wide swath around Warman, just north of Saskatoon. As luck and the weather gods allowed, a trough of sunshine for a few hours though a cool wind came down from the north. Saskatoon has a vibrant car culture and strong DIY builder ethic. That same weather effect has a hard effect on an automobile, so you have to be extra dedicated to preserving the craft.

Step through the Flickr slideshow above to see some of the finest cars cruising around these streets - for a short time until the next winter shoos them off.
