a cash drawing, when is it and who’s eligible?
Cash drawing is at 3 p.m. for drivers with vehicles on display. Vehicles must be 25 yrs or older to be eligible for drawing. You must be present to win. No club members or spouses are eligible to win.
How many vendors
do you get at the show?
The number varies but is usually between 100 and 125. Not all vendors
are selling auto related parts, so there is something for everyone.
Do you allow camping
on the grounds on Saturday night?
Yes, we have space set aside for event participants, with electrical
and water. All are free.
Do I need to pre-register
for the show?
No, we do not take pre-registrations or reserve any spaces for the
show. All you need to do is arrive at the gate, pay the proper admission
fee, and you’ll be directed to the proper location for vendors,
for sale vehicles, or display vehicles.
Does it cost extra
to show your vehicle?
No, display vehicles are free, for sale cars in the car corral are
an added charge. No “for sale” cars are allowed in the
show car areas.
I see that vendor
spots are 15 ft. wide, but how deep are they?
The spots vary in depth depending on location on the grounds, some
are 15 feet deep and some are 20 feet deep.
If I come from
a long way away, can I set up my vendor space on Saturday afternoon?
Yes, we have club members there on Saturday to direct you to a proper
location and collect your fees.
Can I be a food
vendor?
Yes, there is special pricing for food vendors. We have a specific
member who handles those arrangements. Please call the contact number
for the current year’s person.
How many show vehicles
are on display each year?
Every year it grows, and in recent years we have had 600-700 vehicles
displayed.
I see you use the
word ”vehicles”, what does that mean?
We invite all cars, trucks, cycles, hot rods, customs, etc. We are
open to all vehicles, makes, models, years. We want to have something
for everyone to look at and enjoy!
If I don’t
get a business card from a vendor at the show and want to contact
him/her later, can I?
We do not keep records of the vendors or display vehicles. It’s
up to you to gather the information at the time of the show.
Can I save a couple
of bucks by getting an advance sale button?
Yes, these admission buttons are available locally and usually are
at auto parts stores, convenience store/gas stations, or food stores.
It’s probably best to call the contact person to get the up
to date listing.
When is the best
time to purchase an admission button?
Right away! They sell very fast and often are not even available a
few days before the show. So, if you see the buttons on display, buy
one…or two!
This is more than
a car show; I always meet my buddies there for a great day!
We have found that car clubs like to make a day of this event, ride
together to the show, enjoy some great eats, and drive home again.
It makes for a great outing with the cars or trucks!
What geographical
area do you draw from?
We see that vehicles and vendors from a three hour radius of our town
show up for the event.
I may be attending
with my hubby, is there something at the side besides car stuff?
Yes, we have vendors that also sell things other than car related
items.
How long has this
show been going on?
This show was started in 1974 and has been going strong ever since!
We invite you to come on in and check us out!
