Hope/Abbotsford (Laura Ballance) – Set in the beautiful Sunshine Valley, surrounded by British Columbia’s spectacular Cascade Mountains and bordered by the Sumallo River, the Sunshine Valley Classic Car Show will host its first annual classic, muscle car and hot rod event on Saturday, August 6th.
The event is expected to draw over 200 cars for the all-day and evening event. Rick Francoeur, President of the show’s presenting sponsor, 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford, says he anticipates significant interest in this destination show.
“To have a show that includes a spectacular drive into Sunshine Valley and then a full day of entertainment and programming, along with a quality show with a range of trophy categories will be a huge hit amongst BC’s very strong classic and hot rod enthusiast community,” says Francoeur. “The show is free to attend for the public, and we hope that families from around the region will join us for a great day of fun, free programming.”
Event admission is free of charge to all spectators, who will enjoy viewing the beautiful vehicles and includes live music, food trucks and an evening, outdoor screening of the classic movie American Graffiti.
Money raised during the event will go to support the Sunshine Valley Community Recreational Association, a not-for-profit organization undertaking a number of community initiatives including restoration of the 100-year-old+ heritage barn, upkeep of the community pool and other community events and activities.
For those wishing to enter a vehicle, the price will be $20 per vehicle and will include dinner.
