Cars and rock and roll music on a Saturday afternoon is pretty sweet. The 1st Annual Sweet Rides Encanterra Car Show in San Tan Valley, Arizona was full of colorful vehicles. The cloud cover kept the sun from blinding us and the warm weather was a blessing for those visiting from colder states.
Over 100 Vehicles
There were over 100 preregistered vehicles for the event. The registered vehicles receive a goodie bag. They gave out 16 awards. The winners received a dash plaque and a trophy. As an added bonus for those who registered their vehicles, there were raffle prize drawings throughout the day.

Have you ever planned a vacation around a car show? If yes, which car show?
I think my favorite part was the pups. 🙂 I’m a dog lover, what can I say!! Looks like a very cool event!
I agree with you. The pups are so cute.
We have a car show each year on Father’s Day at a nearby park and my son loves to go. He enjoys checking out the old cars as well as the really expensive new ones!
That is a fun activity to do on Father’s day.
