Next Year's Show 

This was our best show ever.  We raised $2400 for the St. Vincent de Paul society this year.  We had about 150 great cars and trucks despite the unseasonably cool weather for the end of February.   The day started out a bit chilly (about 50 degrees and windy!), but warmed up by the afternoon to almost 70 degrees and turned out to be just about perfect.  Everything went smoothly, and we had plenty of room for the many makes and models of cars from early hot-rods to late-modified corvettes and chevies.

We had a great Silent Auction that raised $1,100 for St. Vincent de Paul this year.  Thank you to all the bidders; we hope you had fun!  Our 50/50 raffle also collected over $700, of which half will also go to St. Vincent de Paul too.

And here are many of this year's vendors whose donations also went to our charity.   There was a nice variety, from food to car supplies, and even a local artist, jewelry maker and EARS (the animal rescue center) this year!

Here's everyone waiting for their awards.  Notice we aren't seeking out the shade this year!  About 150 trohpies were awarded this year!

And here's Dominick Ponnozzo, our Car Show Committe Chairman, who was carting around everywhere doing everything to make it all run smoothly!

Many thanks to our Car Show Committee Chairperson, Domonick Pannozzo, and to the Car Show Committee members for the many hours they worked to make this car show a success.  We would also like to thank all the Sponsors & club volunteers who got sponsors and donations and contributed their time to work on the show too.
