Fashion Show

Every year the Fashion Show is a big hit with Run to the Sun ladies. The doors were opened at 9:00 AM on Saturday morning and soon the convention center was filled with what ended up to be over 350 ladies. This year the event was co-chaired by Jan Edwards and JoAnn Dearen and it came together with the help of 20 hard-working committee members.

        

     

The theme for this year's show was "Racing for Pink Slips" which combined the concept of racing for pink slips (car titles) with racing for a cure for breast cancer. All proceeds from the fashion show will be donated to breast cancer awareness. As the room filled, there was a sea of pink. Refreshments were served and there were even special pink drinks available at the cash bar.

        

Tables were set up with some nice prizes that were donated by local businesses, and the ladies of most of the area car clubs assembled some amazing baskets that were raffled off. In total, there were 100 door prizes and eighteen raffle prizes, some of which are shown below.

        

        

     

At the show, Nancy Warner and Jonny Mays handled the MC duties. Entertainment was provided by Charlotte Zulkowski.

The fashions, one casual set and one dressy set, were the highlight of the show courtesy of Dillard’s, Bon Worth, Chic Again, J.C. Penney and Sherry’s Casuals.

        

     

The fashion show also included a casual pink outfit and a dressy pink outfit contest for the lady rodderettes. Each one was given a number and they strolled across the stage in a parade of pink.

     

Sandra Konkright of St. George, UT was the casual winner and Debbie Watkins of Pueblo West, CO was the dressy winner.
