Heather’s/Lake Ripley Show in Cambridge

[Eclipse_Tuner]

Specific Ratings (A-F):
Arrival/Departure (easy to find, easy to leave?) – easy to get to.

Parking Location – Good class organization for parking…no shade though.

Class Organization – Cars parked by class

Trophies & Prizes – Tiny trophies and no door prizes

Food – Typical, but incredibly cheap, and good quality.

Entertainment – Live cover bands.

Judging – Participants ballot…and if you hate that type, then this show is the biggest reason why. It became very obvious that those that have been to the past 7 of this show were going to win again, and they did…it was terrible.
Variety of Cars – Good, a few new ones.
Bathrooms – At the beach/park, so pretty good, but a long walk.
Weather – Excellent!!!
Trophy Presentation Timing – On time and concise.
Entry Fee – $8, which is typical and expected (3 to get in, and 5 to show).
Overall Rating: C-

The park and layout was really nice, as was parking by classes. However, the way the show is ran, the participant ballot and how terrible it was done really really hurts this show. I regret going…should have went up to Manitiwoc’s Street Scene show instead.

I certainly wont be back to that show.

Thanks for the review! I’ll keep this one in mind not to attend in the future. Participant judging can be tough ~ you either love or hate it and having shows in small towns in even worse.

It was a beautiful day to be out though, almost a shame to stay home like we did! icon_cheesygrin.gif

Ahh another show that if your not from the home town your SOL BangHead.gif

Glad I went to the Taste of Madison Sunday. Good food, anything you could think of to eat great bands also. To top it off did not cost anything to get in.. icon_cheesygrin.gif
