Comp'd Picnic admissions

We are disappointed to learn that some people have been bragging that they sneak into the Picnic....or they say they are a close personal friend of Jimmy's....or they have connections to Thrasher-- just so they don't have to pay the admission donation of $30.
THERE ARE NO COMP'ED ADMISSIONS FOR VEHICLES! (Besides, Jimmy does not comp!)
So if your friends are telling you there are, that's not okay.

The Picnic is run by a nonprofit organization that gives the proceeds to the Developmentally Disabled. The organizers do not profit off this event-- and that's part of the reason why it's lasted so long! We try to keep the Picnic fee as low as possible so the widest variety of people can bring their cars out for a day of fun--so you can see the cars of rich people and the not-so-rich. When people have paid $X for their vehicle's paint job or tires, and don't want to throw in $30 to help support the event and the Disabled, well, we think that's saying something about them....

This is also an OLD Car Picnic--we don't have a problem with your 80s, 90s, 00s cars--there just isn't room for them and we have a very strict permit. So please, don't try to force your modern cars into the event. If you do see modern cars in the event, you know it's highly likely they sneaked in and therefore didn't chip into to support the event.....

It's all about respect--we respect you and your cars and hope you respect what we are trying to do for you, your family, your friends, your City, and your disabled neighbors. We want to keep this Picnic going and FUN (and fair!) for everyone!
