A favorite among locals is the car
show pre-registration on Friday
from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.
“This always turns into a small car
show in its self. It is a great way to
make Saturday morning run smooth-
ly,” said event organizers.
Judges will give trophies and
awards between 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.
There will be a 50/50 drawing,
raffle prizes, hot dog booth and
more. Shirts are also for sale.

Coast Radio. Sign-up is during the
car show, but it is on a first-come,
