SLAMBOREE 2019

OUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME

- JON HANSEN

WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING TO A SHOW FOR THE WEEKEND AND FIND YOURSELF JUST AS EXCITED TO SEE THE STAFF WHO RUNS THE SHOW AS THE TRUCKS THEMSELVES, YOU KNOW THE SHOW’S HOSTS ARE DOING IT RIGHT.

With more than 25 years of Slamboree history, event organizer Jimmie Broyles, his wife and his staff have no doubt their poured blood, sweat and tears into this Midwest treasure of a show. Not only do they do it for charity, but Jimmie and crew have been hosting it year after year for all the right reasons: the people. In fact, they know almost every person who comes through those gates. They have a long list of to-dos every year, but no matter how much stress they are dealing with, they always greet you with a smile. They embody selfless love for the car scene and the people associated with it.
