Annual Car Show & Picnic
On Sunday August 21st the PacifOn Sunday August 21st the Pacific Northwest region of the Cadillac and LaSalle Club held our annual car show and picnic inviting all Cadillac and LaSalle collectors and enthusiasts in the greater Puget Sound Area! This grand event was held from 8:00 AM to about 4:00 PM. This event was held for the second consecutive year in the town of Ruston near Point Defiance City Park. The town of Ruston was gracious enough to close Winnifred St. between N 51st St. and N 54th St. to let us park our cars on the street and on the grassy median for our show.
The event had about 50 cars in attendance. Members and guests were treated to a complementary lunch from a choice of three participating local resturants: Don's Ruston Market & Deli, The Ruston Inn, and The Antique Sandwich Company. Brotherton Cadillac in Renton was kind enough to spnsor our show again as they have done the past several years. They paid for the trophies and dash plaques for the show. The fantastic sunny 78 degree weather was perfect for listening to the live music while doing some tire kicking and visiting the numerous arts and crafts vendor booths.
