Businesses, including seven restaurants, open especially for the show. Don't miss out on the ”all you can eat pie and ice cream social” hosted by the Museum. This is a great opportunity to enjoy homemade pies and locally made Olympic Mountain Ice Cream – all for a great cause!
An organ grinder for the kids will display his instruments and allow kids to give it a try. The giant Paul Bunyon and Babe the Blue Ox will be on hand for photos and will stand guard over the event!

This year the group has over $6,000 in items, including golf weekends, spa packages, lumber, wine tastings, dinners for two, and auto kits. Tickets for the raffle are just $1, (10 for $5) and can be purchased during the car show.
