4th Annual Rock 'Til You Drop Car Show & Concert after show

The show turned out to be a great show as the first show presented in the Cape!

This show was relocated from the Downtown Fort Myers location which we have all known for a few years now to be held at the Sunsplash water park grounds during the water parks off season.

Although some entrance signs were poorly placed and the event listing didn't mention that the entrance to the show was in the rear of Sunsplash (one block down and around the back of the school), leading many people to the wrong entrance, all went pretty well. For any of those who did manage to get caught up in the miss understand of entrances, you may have seen me out there helping to direct traffic in the correct direction (I was the guy with the grey hat on).

These events are always so much fun to be a part of for me and seeing the cars, excitement in others, and generally happy people is always plus. All car enthusiasts should have taken the opportunity to visit such a large local car show. Better yet, this show also had great music to add to the event experience. I'm sure next year will be even better!

Many people had complaints about the $5 donation entrance fee, yet managed to make an exception. With this $5 donation you got a FREE hand stamp which gave you access to see the show cars up front and personal (no touching) live music, and food. To me that $5 was a darn good value. Many people remember the coconut festival I'm sure. The Coconut festival also charged an entrance fee for generally the same basic principles.

The Progeria Research Foundation was very happy to have gotten the proceeds and monetary donations from the event. Each year the sales of 50/50 tickets awards one person half all of the money raised, half to charity, half to winner. Although that lucky person returned their share of the money to Progeria, along with the biggest club attendance award for most cars, Best of show award money, and Sheriffs choice award money. All of these actions really show the car enthusiasts good spirit towards charity.
