Calvary Chapel Visalia Plans for the 10Th Annual Motorsport Show, Craft Old Cars & Motorsports • 8.18 www.oldcarandmotorsports.com SEPT. 29TH CALIFAS FEST CAR SHOW AT NIGHT SANGER Page 17 Calvary Chapel Visalia Plans for the 10th Annual Motorsport Show, Craft Boutique & Car Parts Swap-meet Location: Calvary Chapel Visalia / 11720 Avenue 264, Visalia / 559-687-2820 Date: September 29, 2018 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM Admission: Free Contact: Kevin Mizner, Event Coordinator / 559-623-6638 On Saturday, September 29, 2018, Calvary Chapel Visalia will host its 10th Annual Motorsports Show, Craft Boutique and Car Parts Swap meet. The event, which is free to the public, is a family-friendly event that offers a variety of activities for all ages. The vision for the show began in 2007, when our former Senior’s Pastor, Milton Hare, wanted to begin a program of afterschool Bible clubs in elementary schools in Visalia. Seek- ing the help of his friend and local car club member, Bob Isaak, the first car show was planned for 2008. Thanks to great support from local car clubs including the Visalia Vapor Trailers and Small Town Cruizers, the first of many shows was in the history books. The philosophy of the planning committee was and continues to be to bless the folks who take time to bring their fabulous cars to the show. The original cost of an entry was $25, which included a t-shirt, BBQ lunch, and merchant award. The fee was increased to $30 after a couple of years but the committee has worked to not increase that fee while still providing Find us online at: a great “SS” t-shirt, deep-pit BBQ lunch, and merchant award. Tough to find a show that offers more value for the entry fee paid. www.oldcarandmotorsports.com This year’s show will offer seven trophy categories including Best-of-Show car, pick-up, motorcycle, big rig (no trailers please), lowrider, rat-rod, and specialty vehicle. There will also be an award for the most car club members in attendance. Last year, there were over 130 vehicles on display, ranging from beautiful customs to spotless originals and included several restored “Big Rigs.” The show has consistently had a nice variety of vehicles. And as always, you can park with your friends or club…no pre-set parking by category. As in past years, the show will welcome Shirley Shahan Bridges and her ‘68 Dodge Dart, which is a tribute to her original ‘68 Dodge Hemi that she raced back in the day. Shirley has been part of the planning committee for the show from the beginning. Shirley, who raced under the name of Shirley Shahan, was a force to be reckoned with in the 1960’s. In 1965, she landed the Drag-On-Lady, a limited edition 1965 Plymouth Belvedere Hemi, setting the speed record for that model at 127 mph. Shirley became the first woman to win a National Hot Rod Association national event. Her 1967 Hemi Coronet became one of the most cop- ied vehicles in the sport. She was inducted into the International Drag Racing Hall of Fame and she received a lifetime achievement award from the NHRA. Along with the cars, the vision of the show included something for the ladies as well…a craft show. We have an average of 30 vendors offering a wide variety of crafty items, clothes, and jewelry. Along with the kids’ area, where there are activities like crafts and face-painting, there is something for every member of the family. In addition to the car show and craft area, the show offers a car parts swap-meet. Might bring a new opportunity for folks who are visit- ing the show. The show averages about 20 vendors annually who have a wide variety of car parts. And as always, there will be lots of food, including coffee and biscuits and gravy, a deep pit lunch, hot dogs, baked goods, shaved ice, kettle-corn, and a local favorite - the A&W Root Beer Truck serving ice cream floats. There will be music throughout the day, 50-50 drawing, and a great selection of raffle items to bid on, including a beautiful, fully refurbished antique Coke machine. As in the past, this event supports the Calvary Kid’s Bible Clubs, which are afterschool Bible programs in elementary schools around Visalia and Tulare. Currently, there are 12 Bi- ble Clubs in operation in 9 schools. Each week, volunteers meet after school with kids who have signed up for the program for an hour or so of games, music, crafts, and a Bible message. This show provides 100% of the funds needed for these clubs. Gates open at 6:00 AM for car photos and parking, with the official show start at 8:00 A.M. The entry fee of $30 can be paid in advance or on the day of the show. For questions on the show, please contact the church office at 559-687-0220.

  • 2014-Carlisle-Chrysler-Nationals
    OFFICIAL EVENT GUIDE OFFICIAL DIRECTORY PARTNER OFFICIAL EVENT SOUVENIRS BUILDING T July 11-13, 2014 • Carlisle, PA elcome to the 24th edition of the Carlisle Chrysler Nationals! Time Wreally does fly. It was seven years ago (2007) that I sat down to write my first welcome column for the event guide and a lot has changed in that time. We all watched Chrysler become independent from Daimler, get bought by Cerberus, file for bankruptcy and then get bought by Fiat. Crazy times! At the 2006 Chrysler Nationals, Chrysler announced that they would build the Challenger in 2008 and we had eight of them at the show that year. The following year that number jumped to nearly 100 and last year there were more than 260 “new” Challengers here! Since this show was built around the classic Mopars you are probably wondering why I’ve brought these new cars to your attention. What’s impressive is that while all of these late model Challengers, Chargers, Magnums, 300s and Darts have grown in attendance, we haven’t lost any of the classics. The growth is from some folks bringing both their late models and classics and all the new blood that has joined the hobby. Something else that’s relatively new to the show is the Mopar Hall of Fame. This will be the third year and maybe the best yet! It is held in Camp Hill Saturday evening and ticket information is available at www.MoparH- allOfFame.com. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear the stories right from the source and mingle with the legends of our hobby! The 2015 Chrysler Nationals is already in the planning stages with a celebration of the ’80s and fins of the ’50s.
