TAKE YOUR KID TO A CAR SHOW

A Difficult Show Comes Together Creating a Great Day

 We had several obstacles to overcome this year in that we had some of our Concessions back out, leaving us to scramble to provide food for our participants.  We were also slightly down in local sponsorship this year.   A huge THANK YOU goes out to V's Rollin Coffee and  The Hop Country Restaurant in Moxee for  helping us in our time of need.

A big thank you goes out to the following sponsors who helped with the show.  Without them, the show would not go on.  Thank You to:  Muffler Bandit,  AMB Tools, Warhammer Motorsports, Jeans Cottage Inn, Structural Components, ABC Balancing Beads, Vintiques of Yakima and Kardy Schuknecht.

We also had a record 50/50 prize this year thanks to our new member Melisa Maggard who sold tickets.  The winner walked away with $448.00, thanks to her hard work.  Melisa is looking forward to an even better show next year.

Next Year will be our 25th Year, both as a club and our show.  Promising to be the "BEST SHOW EVER", if circumstances and weather allow.

Here are some photos of the show, taken by Mike Streby......

2024 Represents Our 24th Year As A Club.

 Please excuse the lack of posts recently.  Life has taken a few un-expected turns.  Yes, I believe that 2024 will be much better than 2023 has been to all of us.   2024 marks the 24th year of our club's existence.  We have lost several members over the last few years, but we are currently turning things around by adding new members and gaining more interest in classic and modern American vehicles.  

One of the main goals today is the younger people.  We need to work at keeping them interested in our types of vehicles.  Today, they lean toward tuners, and foreign stuff since that is a big part of what is on the road today.  However, classics are easier to work on and have gained in value over the years.   I support SEMA's "Take a Kid to a Car Show" promotion, and even hand out stickers at our show, in an effort to keep kids interested.

Here is the poster I am using this year.  It is a poster that was originally designed for the year 2020 that we did not use because of Covid.  With a few updates, I will use it for the 2024 show.  On it is a photo of four car guys working on a 1966 Chevy II owned by Bob Brogden, who was not a member of our club. That is Bob on the left.  Bob died last year, so this poster is sort of a tribute to him since he gave permission to use the photo way back in 2020.
