Pavilions Rock N Roll Car Show December 14, 2024

Nice pics again Rick. I missed you yesterday but I hope your Christmas party was fun. I talked a bit with the owner of the 421 Car. It was restored 15 years ago in Montana. It looked like it was just finished a few days ago, beautiful car. I also saw Larry Christensen out with his amazing unrestoed 69 Ralley Green Yenko. I hope one day he brings out his early 69 Z that he restored.
I hope the new entry fee policy does not turn people away, nothing is ever easy anymore.

There are many entry/exit points to the parking lot where the cars are exhibited, so how they plan to maintain control over all of those - while still allowing the general public access to the businesses that operate in the shopping center - will be interesting to see.

The ‘manager’ says they have all of that figured out. Not sure they were prepared for the monumental pushback they are currently receiving. And no one is excited to see a BMX demonstration.

I’ll be there all day 12/21. Every year, the Derelicts cover several tables with munchies, cookies, cake, and other Christmas stuff. Don’t forget to grab something.

We’ll see about that fee. So far, to avoid it, arrive early and leave before 4.

Maybe that's their game plan to eliminate the late day 'shenanigans'????

I had to leave early, but I talked to a buddy on Sunday that helps them clean up. He said it was the worst "bewitching hour" he has ever seen there! The younger crowd seems to be trying their best to see the show cancelled. Plus the lot was trashed and part of their clean up was many empty liquor bottles left behind.

If the show was to end at 6, the younger crowd would probably still gather, but then it would become a law enforcement issue since those gathering after the show would be loitering.

Salt River Police have been busy handing out expensive tickets for egregious displays of 'driving'. In the long run, that should help curtail bewitching hour shenanigans.
