The parkade isn't the greatest place to hold an auction, but Okanagan Lake park is booked by the Elvis Festival. The park would be a much better venue. Keep in mind that any new event takes time to develop, and I believe the Electric Garage was committed to a three year trial to develop it to full potential.
If they could get access to the park, with proper large tents, Electric Garage feels this could become the best auction venue in Western Canada, if it's tied in with the Beach Cruise.
We'll see how it all unfolds during the next several months. Remember that Barrett Jackson wasn't always the show you see now. It was a pretty small effort in its early days.
Meanwhile, we're trying to get permission to park SSRs in Rotary on Thursday night next year, with our own security.
