July 1, 2008 The new Junkmobile Thanks to all the votes from the Junkyard Fans, option 17 was the choice that seemed to be the most popular.

The first Junkmobile actually orginated from Vancouver BC. It belonged to Grandpa and Grandma Olsen and was used on their many camping trips across Canada to visit the Olsen family in Ottawa. The van became famous in Ottawa when Jonny added the funky paint job to start a JYS tradition. June 30, 2008 Junkmobile goes to the junkyard Sadly, the 3rd Junkmobile in the history of Junkyard Symphony goes to the junkyard to be recycled. The van was a soldier of reliability and never once broke down on a road trip. The van will be greatly missed but we take heart in the knowledge that it will be recycled into a new automobile somewhere.

Jonny loved the design of the college and decided he needed to take pictures. It was was a great model for the future Junkyard Symphony School of Eco-Arts. But they were late for the show, so pictures would have to wait until the show was finished. Perhaps the show was too hot, because by the time Jonny and Tony got back to the college to take pictures several hours later, Alma College had burnt to the ground. What a terrible shame!
