South Bay Ready to Show off Their Rides
Southwest High Students and Community Come Together for Car Show

Over 100 custom cars, motorcycle and bicycles will be on display at Southwest High School. The event will feature over 13 local car clubs, informational booths and a raffle featuring a variety of prizes. Along with the numerous vehicles on display, there will be a variety of live entertainers, including the Southwest High Band and Mariachi. Cost of admission to the event is $2.

As a means of combating recent negative incidents at Southwest High, several students – led by Juniors Carlos Lozano and Nayeli Vargas – approached the administration about hosting the event. Lozano and Vargas, with assistance from Principal, Dr. Maria Armstrong and ASB Dean Mark Carpizo, have organized the event from its inception, including meeting with local car clubs, designing event fliers and planning the event layout.

The purpose of the event is to highlight the diversity of the South Bay community and to raise funds for the Junior class. In addition, the Junior class has also committed to donating a portion of the proceeds to relief efforts in Haiti.

Date/Time: Saturday, Feb. 20, 2010, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm – Rain or Shine. Southwest High School, South Parking Lot, 1685 Hollister Ave, San Diego, CA 92154
