Dippin' Dave's Ice Cream Shoppe at 571 S. FM 548 in Forney will be holding the Dippin' Dave's Simply Classic Car Show on Saturday, July 14, 2012, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. All proceeds from the car show will benefit the Sharing the Love Foundation Amazing Grace Food and Clothing Pantry.

The cost to enter a car in the car show is $15 per entry and there will also be a costume contest with a vintage 50s costume theme. Registration will begin at 4:30 p.m. in front of Dippin' Dave’s. The cars will be staged in the parking lot at the end of the building near the ice cream shop and the parking lot next to Coldwell Bankers.

Dave and Mary Drennon, the owners of Dippin' Dave's, have great plans for the car show event. The awesome vintage cars, trucks, and motorcycles that will be on display will compete in 10 classes and 20 dash plaques will be awarded to the first 20 entries. Additional entertainment will be provided by Wayne Blanchard and there will also be a 50/50 raffle, as well as raffles for $100 gift certificates to 2M Outfitters Hunting Service, and a $50 gift certificate for Jamie's Performance and Repair Car Service.

This should be a great family summer event as face painting and balloon art will be provided for the kids and multiple vendors will be present. Dippin' Dave's has become one of the most popular ice cream shops in the DFW area since it opened in February 2012. They serve Blue Bell ice cream, hot dogs, nachos, shakes, malts, sodas, pies, and other goodies that are delicious and affordable. There is no charge to attend the car show, so if you are looking for a fun family event next weekend, stop by Dippin' Dave's Ice Cream Shoppe on Saturday night!
