Specific Ratings (A-F):
Arrival/Departure (easy to find, easy to leave?) – Having been to this show multiple times in the past, it was well marked and there were plenty of orange shirts around pointing you in the right direction.
Parking Location – Held downtown Edgerton, which I LOVE! The streets were great, we were parked tightly together with no room behind the cars for tents or anything like that which made things difficult in the heat but we managed. I know they expected more cars, but next year a bit more room would be great.
Class Organization – I don’t think anything but the Mustangs and possibly Trucks were parked together, which makes judging difficult but no one seemed to mind.
Trophies & Prizes – Lots of door prizes throughout the day, and if you didn’t win one they were tossing them out to anyone that walked by. There was also a “Peoples Choice” award that many didn’t know about as it wasn’t clear where the ballots came from. You had to pick one up at the trophy table, which should’ve been announced (maybe it was, but I never heard it, and I was right there). I don’t know if it was spectator voting, or if the ballots should’ve been handed out at registrations, but I’m thinking if they want people to vote, that should be made clear.
Food – We always eat in the local bars, and the one we walked into this year was quite…. interesting to say the least but the food was good. I know they had plenty to eat on the streets also, no one should’ve gone home hungry.
Entertainment – I was SO relieved to see different guys from 3D Sound this year and they did a nice job. I liked how they worked through the crowd and got people involved, without being obnoxious and overbearing. The music selection was excellent, something for everyone.
Judging – I won Best in my Class again, which always surprises me as they have some really, really nice cars there. I was there when it was judged and they seemd fair, did a nice job.
Dash Plaque – Yes
Variety of Cars – Great! Some locals, but also some we never see. Edgerton attracts a great selection from all around!
Bathrooms – Again, the bars came into play here, but I know they had a portable one or two around the show.
Weather – We drove through rain 3 times on the way there and were a bit concerned, but the closer we go to Edgerton the better it was. A A hot, humid day after the skies cleared but I’ll take it.
Trophy Presentation Timing – They got started around 2 p.m., which is awesome! I very much appreciate getting out of shows in a timely manner. They kept the presentation moving. I did not go out to the park as previously discussed here, and heard 10-20 cars did. I know many were confused and upset on the additional pricing, we’ll see what the future brings. It was also suggested that when trophies were awarded, the presenter seemed to know 75% of the winners, which made many go ~ hmmm??? I have no idea if he knew that many people or not and didn’t keep track of where everyone was from.
Entry Fee – $7.00 to preregister and a t-shirt, you can’t beat that! From my car I was #3 to register, I’ll for sure do that again next year.
Overall Rating: B

This is one of my favorite shows, and I know the group works hard to put it on. I’m curious on what the survey sheets indicated, and will be emailing mine to msmonte as I forgot to hand it in. I would continue to improve on what they are already doing, and not making big changes that confuse the participants.

I’m all for making extra money and supporting the community that puts on the show, but any changes shouldn’t be last minute but clear months in advance. Keep up the good work!

Congrats to everyone that won, nice awards!
