The 2003 Apple Festival Custom Car and Truck Show was held on September 27, 2003.  This has always been a great show to go to in the past and this year was no exception!  It was a cool day in the low 60's and there were a few times when it drizzled rain, but it was mostly sunny during the day.  When you arrive at the show they ask that you register and classify the vehicle before you park.  This allows the vehicles to be parked in numerical order.  Confusion sets in when vehicles park before they register and then they are not classified.  Once everyone was parked and settled, things went smoothly for the rest of the day.  There are many things that make this a great show to attend from year to year.   The quality and amount of the door prizes and raffles is awesome.  There are an extraordinary amount of vehicle categories...this makes it very fair because similar vehicles are always compared against each other.    Also, many people get to receive an award that may not normally be eligible for awards in other shows.  This makes it much more rewarding and enjoyable for most people.  If you get bored at the show you can walk across the street to the Apple Festival grounds and enjoy the carnival rides, food, and arts and crafts.  If you have a chance to attend next year, it is highly recommended.
