Some of the participants and attendees at awards presentation during Datsun Driving Canby Fun 2009.
A shot of a few of the attendees. It was an impromptu photo shoot of a small percentage of registrants and attendees. Anyone who wanted to drive back to the field was included. We estimate that at least 200 cars attended and/or participated in Canby 09 over the two days. Thanks to Ron Tyler and Paul Rushman for the Winnebago-assisted photo.
The Winnebago/Tripod used to get the group photo the next day.
