GULF SIDE CORVETTE CLUB
The 25th Annual
Chasco Fiesta Car, Truck & Bike Show Trophy Winners!
3/14/2024 Update
We will be closing registration @ 3:00 this afternoon to give us time to complete all pre-registered vehicles before Sunday morning.
It's going to be a beautiful day and we are expecting over 400 vehicles.
Please remember that we are registering vehicles to only 10:30 this year so that gives our judges time to get all the vehicles done and into our computer. We are hoping to begin calling out our winners by 2:00 if not earlier. We have 157 trophies and announcing them all will take some time, so when your name is called please come up quickly. 30 seconds each is still over an hour, so I'll be moving along fast in hopes to get you all out by 3:30 or earlier.
You should come back here if you want to see who won and what they won.
I still think it's nice to see you and your vehicle in print.
See you all on Sunday.
Pat
I/20/2024 Update
Getting ready for our Chasco Show? It's coming up in a few months, so if you want the free event T-shirt and dash plaque, remember you've got to be one of the first to register. A change this year in the registration times. It has been changed to 8:00 - 10:30. If you've seen one of our old fliers or adds, please remember registration is now closing at 10:30.
This year it's a unique combination of being on St. Patty's Day and it being our 25th Anniversary show. 25 years is a long time for a car show to survive, so we must be doing something right. Our first show was in 1999 and we had the 147 vehicles parked all around the Sims Park Lake. Now we close down the city and park all over, and have over 400 vehicles.
This year we welcome back our sponsors "Feola's Service Station", "Nature Coast Auto Glass", "Ford of Port Richey", "Wheel Craft", "YETI Construction", "Creative Curbing", "NAPA Auto Parts" and "AETNA". This year we also have as "Major Sponsors" ..."Pro Tech Roofing Services" and "PASCO Powersports". We thank all of you, and our participants, for making our show such a huge success.
We are a "Not for Profit" Corporation and a "501C3", we donate to various charities all year. I've listed last years below. Thanks to your participation and to our sponsors, we've been able to donate over $14,000.00 in 2023 and hope to do even more in 2024.
If you were a participant in our 1st "Veterans Car, Truck & Jeep" show at HCA Trinity Hospital last year we tried a new "Cloud" type of registration and judging. We were able to begin our trophy announcements by 2:00. It worked so well we are going to use it once again on this show and should be able to have the same results. On Saturday November 9th we will be hosting our "2nd Annual Trinity Show". I think you all would agree that HCA Trinity Hospital was a fantastic sponsor and great venue. And I promise to present trophies BEFORE 2:00 this time.
