18th Annual celebration of cars and community
information released
On Saturday June 1, Historic Downtown Chelan will be transformed into a car lover’s paradise, as over 150 cars, motorcycles, trucks and hot rods line the streets. From vintage beauties to sleek modern marvels, attendees will have the opportunity to admire some of the finest automobiles ever created, while simultaneously voting for their favorite! Nearly 20 trophies will be awarded, including the most sought-after prize – Best in Show.
The Chamber is also very excited to announce that all of this year’s trophies are handmade by our local high school students. Event proceeds benefit scholarships for local students each year.
“We are thrilled to once again welcome car enthusiasts and families to another exciting edition of Cruizin Chelan,” said Mike Steele, Executive Director of the Lake Chelan Chamber of Commerce. “This event embodies the vibrant spirit of our community, and we are proud to showcase the beauty of Lake Chelan alongside the timeless allure of classic automobiles.”
