seal beach car show - saturday april 27th... by chris travers
The annual Orange Count Rite of Spring, better known as the Seal Beach Car Show was once again a big hit. This event is so popular that each year they sell entries for the following year’s show one year ahead of time... And it sells out! Thanks to Glenn Kerr presenting many members to the show committee as event judges. We are “allowed” to be a big part of this event and have our own private parking lot that is front and center to the entire show. We met at our usual spot in Sunset Beach for the easy cruise into the venue. Our reserved parking spot gave us the benefit of showing up a bit later than most of the others while still maintaining a prime parking spot. GOOD JOB GLENN! Besides the huge (525) number of beautiful vehicles, this show does one of the best jobs of bringing families together at a car show. There were games, stickers, balloons and other goodies to keep the kids interested but most of them just enjoyed looking at the hardware. According to the City, over 10,000 people were walking up and down Main Street taking everything in. The local Chamber of Commerce provides shuttles to and from the pier to make access and parking easy for everybody. If you missed this show, make your plans for next year NOW!
