Community Daze wouldn’t be complete without the annual Bo Huff Car show that takes place on Saturday. Since the passing of Bo in 2015, his son, Junior has taken over the wheel to continue his father’s legacy.  The car show begins registration at 8:00 am along with a $20.00 entry fee at that time. The occasion showcases various new and stunning custom cars, trucks, hot rods, motorcycles and bicycles. This year all the custom build trophies to be presented to the winners were comprised of long hours of thought and design. To determine winners this year, event organizers made the decision to allow registered participants to make their choice by a voting process.

Individuals who would like to be a part of the Car Show but don’t have a vehicle to enter, can be register for the Pinup and Pompadour contest that will take place during the car show. Winners will be determined by a panel of judges.
