I was going to register by internet but it wants to charge $25 rather than the $20 pre registration fee.
Can you look into this?

The fees depend on what competition you registered for. Fee of 25.00 is for judged show & shine with a limit of 200 cars. The fee of 20.00 is for peoples choice award. I will check with our web master to see if there is a problem with charges. The web site lists maps to the new location and a list of vendors. If you see me at various Cruise Nights I will have maps with me.

Then your web site is correct, I was registering for the judged part.

I didn't notice the price differance on the main page but I see it now.

Thanks

Show is still on. Got an e-mail from the organizers around 11 AM today. The local weather station calls for cloudy weather from 2PM afterwards.
Hmmm. Probably won't go either.

I would assume that the show was cancelled? It has been raining like crazy all morning over here on the eastside.

Show was not cancelled. I just got back (drove my DD). There were 3 beautiful C1's there and 3 of the '10 Grand Sports. The showing was rather sparse, but I still spent about 45 minutes walking around checking out the Vettes. They were just about to finish the silent auction when I got there. Too bad, I was just about to write my name on the bid list for a really cool poster when the horn blew announcing the end of the auction.
