Camden Show 2010 (More photos added)

Post by redhot »

This years Camden Show is on soon, Friday 19th - Saturday 20th March at the Camden showground.
http://www.camdenshow.com.au/
Anyone know what rides we'll get this year? Guess there'll be the usual stuff from Lauries, Youngs, Chants etc.
Was a really good ride line up last year, hopefully it'll be the same or better this time, hope to get some photos on the Saturday.
Anyone living around Sydney area and has never been should make the trip and check it out, still one of the best country shows in NSW i reckon.

Yeh I'm hopeing to head down again. I think Sky Walker may be attending this year. Then I'd say Power Surge will be back along with the usuals aswell. But yeh I like Camden aswell, had a good time last year.

Funny Camden doesn't run on the Sunday; they'd get heaps of people in if they did!

Yeh pretty sure I'm going down tomorrow night. Thanks for that redhot. Sounds like the rides I was expecting to show up. I'd say Power Surge is somewhere in there too. No Limit or Dean Davis' Wheel you couldn't see?

Good photos thanks redhot. Interesting to see Laurie's Whizzer there. Odd with Dean not having Zipper there either. And Short's Zipper looks like the cars have had a repaint, they were sanding back the paintwork on them at Canberra.

Good lineup, hopefully will be down there tonight and tomorrow

Had a good time at the show, was there friday night through to late yesterday arvo. Got quite hot down there too. Always enjoy doing Camden, one of the more enjoyable shows. Show society always does a good job with the show, probably saying that due to them always putting on a free lunch for us cattle exibitors every year :lol:

Carnival area was pretty good this year. Was odd not to see Davis' Zipper there. But did see it in the camping area. Also interesting to see Laurie's Steam Merry there aswell as their Cha Cha which I'd never seen in real life before. Also good to see Sky Walker which seemebd to be pretty popular on Friday night. Anyway here's the photos:

Didn't get too many photos and no videos, was pretty busy yesterday. Also only rode Power Surge and Sky Walker. Was good to see the showmen and all the workers too. Anyway enjoy!

Cheers

Redhot and TG great jobs on the photos. What a top show. Good to see some shots of Laurie's Steam Merry, what a piece of history. Hard to believe so much gear there for something that isn't open on Sunday.

Yeh I find it hard to believe too. Show society really needs to consider opening on Sunday. Yeh I've only ever seen the Merry at Sydney, first time I've seen it at a regional. Definately still going strong
