Hello everyone! My name is Mike and I am organizing a car and truck show in Baltimore, MD that has a lot to offer and its a show no one will want to miss! Below are the details. Contact me if you have any questions or post a reply. Thanks! =D

Car and Truck show open to all makes, models, and years from antique muscle cars to new exotic imports. OVER 40 trophies to be awarded for several classes including some 4 foot trophies! First 50 registered receive free dash plates. There are free goody bags, give-aways, raffles, voting, food, drinks, indoor seating, vendors, and much more. Register show vehicles for $15 that day or check our website for preregistration. FREE FOR PUBLIC SPECTATORS. The registered show vehicles will fill the 150+ parking lot so register and come early! The show will be followed by a semi-pro wrestling event inside the hall. All proceeds benefit the Arbutus Volunteer Fire Department. We are searching for additional vendors and sponsors and have indoor places to set up booths and displays. Bring the family and friends for an awesome time!

You can check out our website for pre-registration:

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you there!
Best regards,
-Mike

PS: The Scion Exposed Car Show in Aberdeen, MD was well done. Streettrenz was there and should have photos up in the coming week in their galleries. Streettrenz, Delmarva Bikini Team, and other vendors and sponsors are considering appearing at this car show!

I hope it all works out for you!
What type of forced induction are you going for? I am pondering the same for my tc...

-1st Muscle/Hotrod (1951-1982)
-1st Classic/Antique (1951 & Below)
-A handful of 2nd place trophies based on which make(s) are most present at the show (so if we get a lot of scions there, there are more possible trophies, even though Best of Show, Best Import, 1st Scion, and 3 other Bests could go to a Scion.)

As far as judging. We are seeking a third party for judging that would have no bias and have experience in judging at car shows. PLEASE (ANYBODY) let me know if you know anyone that can do this for us in the Baltimore MD area. If not, the back up plan is that myself and other car enthusiast firefighters and EMTs that have attended car shows will judge and we will not have any of our vehicles included in the show. I have been to a few shows where politics plays the roles of recognition and awards and that is something I strive to prevent. Just imagine this show being the best ever and we will work from there. Thank you all. Feel free to leave me any further ideas, questions, and/or comments.

I will post a list of the sponsors and vendors attending the event in the coming week or two. Keep posted.

5 miles from my house, i'll try to make it. Gotta decide which car to bring... bring a scion and hang out w/ you guys, or bring the show car, hehe.

UPDATE:
There should be a few car clubs coming, plenty of vendors, sponsors, including the Delmarva Bikini Team (models+photographers), Year One (Goodybags & more), and a couple other big names. The quality trophies are coming from The Larry Beck Company.

*Prospective vendors/sponsors please email arbutuscarshow@gmail.com*

Ok everyone, don't forget to PRE-REGISTER to save yourself a spot and a couple bucks on the fire department website:
http://www.arbutusvfd.org/carshow.htm

Judging will be done by some members and some non-members of this fire department. The judges are not affiliated with any car clubs. There are judging sheets based off of a point system and the judges are screened for competence in our hobby (For example: no judge is going to be like "oh, that looks pretty, you win!" Judges have to be savvy in the field they are judging). These measures are all done to be fair and considerate for everyone.

Update: For any people that are bringing trailers and require additional space and set-up time, please come in early around 10am. At this time, we have at least 4-5 trailers so please come in early or message me ASAP if you or your friend/family's vehicle needs the above but cannot arrive earlier than 11am. Thank you!

Also, what do you guys think about having a tattoo contest, bobbing for fruit contest, and other contests for this event? Any feedback from people attending the show and even those that are not is appreciated! :D

Thanks!
