Pioneer Automotive Services and the Whidbey Cruzers car club sponsored a car show July 23 at Pioneer Automotive Services in Oak Harbor. We had 110 cars, trucks, bikes and tractors. Participants and spectators enjoyed the vehicles, raffles, vendors and the sunshine!

We collected about 100 pounds of food (about 150 items) and $2,000 for North Whidbey Help House. I would like to thank everyone who helped make this event a success. Special thanks to the following merchants:
