With the extra space available, there will be vendors plus games and activities for the whole family!! There will be live music, a bouncy house, and Muddy Hooves mobile farm petting zoo. We will be grilling hamburgers and hotdogs. Popcorn and Shaved Ice vendors will be on site. Check back for a list of vendors that will be at the show and the variety of games your family can enjoy. Tickets will be available to purchase to participate in the games and activities.

Door prizes and goodie bags will be given to those who register for the show. There will be a 50/50 drawing, car dash plaques, and awards for different categories of cars.
