The annual Burns Lake Show and Shine classic car event will make its return to Burns Lake this June, marking the sixteenth it’s been held. The event is a two-day classic car show with cars from the Burns Lake Classic Cars group, scheduled for June 25 and 26.

“This our first show and shine event since 2019 due to COVID-19,” event organizer Dieca Cooke told Lakes District News.

According to Cooke, there are several events planned, including a dinner cruise on the evening of June 25 to start things off, which will begin in the College of New Caledonia parking lot. On June 26, the show and shine event will take place in Spirit Square at 10 a.m., followed by a poker run and cruise to begin around 2 p.m. The day will finish with a BBQ, which will take place at a location that’s yet to be determined.

The show and shine on June 26 will cost an entry fee of $10, and the poker will cost $10 per hand. All the other events are free. Spectators will be free to drop by at any time with no charge.
