iNPHOTOS: A weekend filled with classic cars, barbecue and dragon boats

KAMLOOPS – Ribfest, Hot Nite and dragon boats, oh my! This weekend was an especially busy one in Kamloops. 

Ribfest brought droves of barbecue enthusiasts to Riverside park to indulge in award-winning ribs from champion ribbers.

The Hot Nite in the City show and shine displayed an impressive selection of classic, custom, muscle, sport, collector, and vintage vehicles. Thirteen city blocks in downtown Kamloops shut down for the event.
