What a wonderful day for the inaugural Showdown at Blackwell Car Show!

The sun was shining, the lake was sparkling, and the incredible collection of cars, trucks, and everything in between was truly a joy to behold. From classy classics to unique custom builds, there was something for everyone to enjoy.

At OSU’s Lake Carl Blackwell we believe that some of the best days happen when people come together, and we are grateful to the Stillwater Car Club for partnering with us to make this event a reality. What began as an idea became a memorable day filled with great vehicles, great food, and great company.

A heartfelt thank you to Jim, Terri, Laura, Ernie, OSU College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology, and everyone who worked behind the scenes to bring this event to life. We also appreciate the wonderful food and refreshments provided by Frank’s Food Shack , Blessed & Highly Caffeinated, Arbuckle Fried Pies truck, and our own Cowboy Corner at Lake Carl Blackwell!

This event would not have been possible without the outstanding Lake Carl Blackwell team. Our maintenance staff, park rangers, front desk team, booth staff, Park Manager and OSU Police Department, all went above and beyond to ensure our guests felt welcome and to showcase the beauty of the lake we are fortunate to call home.

And, of course, a special thank you to OSU’s Pistol Pete for bringing a little extra OSU spirit, excitement, and plenty of smiles to the day.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who entered a vehicle, attended the show, and spent part of your Saturday with us. Seeing our community come together against the backdrop of a beautiful Oklahoma lake was exactly what this event was all about. We couldn’t have asked for a better inaugural Showdown at Blackwell, and we look forward to seeing you again next year.
