The Oyen Lions 13th Annual Show and Shine took place on Saturday, July 16.

2016 Oyen Show and Shine!

The day started with a free pancake breakfast put on by the Oyen Chamber of Commerce. Cars and trucks lined up on main street later in the morning as the main event for the day.

Blake Hertz, one of the main organizers, spoke with West Central Online about the event, "It was probably the biggest people turn out we've had. A lot of people there and the free breakfast, even though it was raining, was probably one of the biggest ones we've had too."

Hertz said there was about 32 vehicles on display, which was down in numbers from previous years, but the amount of people there made up for it. He mentioned one of the participants that stuck out, "We had a guy come with an old ford truck, he came all the way from Nebraska. Which is the furthest we've ever had."

The Show and Shine is one of the Lions major fundraiser, and all the proceeds go back into the community.
