The 2011
Borders Three Jamboree, put on June 6 by
the Bonners Ferry Rod Benders Car Club,
was the most successful so far, with
record attendance and classic cars from
as far away as Albany, Oregon. |
The Borders Three Jamboree filled downtown
Bonners Ferry with classic cars from around the
region June 6, with more than 200 cars, trucks,
motorcycles and other machines on display, the
best show thus far since the Bonners Ferry Rod
Benders Car Club began putting on the show.
It took a good bit of time and effort on the
part of the judges to determine the best of the
best, but they diligently stuck to their work
and came up with a fine assortment. You can see
