The 15th Annual Camas Car Show, hosted by the Downtown Camas Association (DCA), will run from 3-8 p.m. on Sat., June 25 and will again bring classic and specialty cars and trucks to the streets of historic Downtown Camas. This event also includes live music by The Robusto Rejects Band, dance performances by Virtuosity Performing Arts Studio, balloon art by Joe Mishkin, food vendors, multiple raffles, and downtown businesses will be open late for shopping and dining. Admission is free to spectators.

Cars can start entering the car show area at noon. See information online here for more details. Goodie bags to the first 100 cars and dash plaques to the first 250 cars.
Awards will be given, including Best in Show, People’s Choice and a variety of Sponsors’ Picks.
