Rods, Dogs & Hogs
to rumble in at Jubilee
LACEY, Wash. – If today’s autos don’t inspire you, plan for the Rods, Dogs & Hogs Classic Car Show on Sunday, August 24 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Jubilee Lodge in Hawks Prairie.
The second annual Rods, Dogs & Hogs is hosted by Jubilee at Hawks Prairie, a master planned community for active adults age 55 or better. The classic car show celebrates all pre-1975 vehicles. Admission is free for spectators.
Last year, nearly 500 people came to see 67 vintage cars, from a 1923 Model T Ford to a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro. Organizers expect 100 cars this year.
The entry fee is $10 per vehicle if registering in advance, $15 on the day of the show. Registration for entrants is from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
The event is a natural fit for Jubilee, say Jubilee residents and show organizers Jim Pringle and Larry Rosenlund. Jubilee residents own a number of vintage models. Rosenlund plans to enter his rare 1969 Camaro, an Indy 500 Pace Car replica. “I’ve liked classic cars since I was a kid,” he says.
In addition to Best of Show, trophies will be handed out in a variety of categories. Guests will be able to vote for their favorites, too, including “Hottest muscle car” and “Most fun to take to the drive-in.” All cars will receive a special dash plaque.
“We have something for everyone – from hot rods to perfectly restored vintage Chevrolets,” says Pringle.
In addition to raffles, food vendors and other entertainment, guests can participate in a Poker Walk through Jubilee’s model homes. Visitors can draw a playing card in each of five homes, with their resulting poker hand eligible for a cash prize at the end of the show. Proceeds from the raffles will go to the American Diabetes Association.
Rods, Dogs & Hogs takes place in the parking lot of the Jubilee Lodge, 8487 Bainbridge Loop NE, Lacey; take Exit 111 from Interstate 5 and follow the signs to Jubilee.
