Interested in cars all my life, my more serious involvement with car shows began in 1992. From then until 2002, we organized and hosted over 15 car and truck shows.

We began working with Hot August Nights in 2000 organizing the new Big Boy’s Toy Store. With the inaugural opening for Hot August Nights 2001, it was a great success. It was the major attraction for Hot August Nights, 2001. Having the 40,000 sq. ft. building about one half full in 2001, it was completely sold out in 2002, rendering it a complete success! The building housed a maximum of 236 10’ x 10’ spaces. Being mostly automotive vendors, it is a great draw to up to 10,000 people daily.

The Big Boy’s Toy Store quickly outgrew its’ old location and is now situated in the new 55,000 sq. ft. Reno Event Center.

We have worked with the Peppermill Casino for nearly 10 years. In 1999, we took over the Hot August Nights Venue for the Peppermill Casino. It has been a success every year since. We use the entire Northern parking lot of the Peppermill. Exhibitors are situated around the perimeter of the parking lot. Our goal is to situate each vendor in a location that best suits his business. The center is set up for show ‘n shine and cruising. While most of the activity is late afternoon and early evening, the Peppermill draws 2,500 to 5,000 vehicles daily.

Beginning in 2001, we handled the Street Vibrations for the Peppermill for three years. With 20,000 to 25,000 motorcycles attending the Street Vibrations, this event draws thousands of motorcycles and riders to the Peppermill.

Since 2000, we have worked with the Carson City Convention and Visitors Bureau to organize and put on the Silver Dollar Car Classic. Located in the Mills Park in Carson City, this event draws over 300 vehicles!

In 2006 we began working with RP Productions. We handle vendors for the San Francisco Rod, Custom and Motorcycle Show held at the Cow Palace in San Francisco each January.

Our most recent addition is the Hot August Nights Swap Meet. Held in conjunction with Hot August Nights, this event takes place at the Reno Livestock Events Center. We will be dealing with over 2,000 vendors and exhibitors at this venue alone during the week of Hot August Nights.

With all of our dealings with Hot August Nights as well as RP Productions, we are really excited and enthusiastic about the new growth of our endeavors.
