TOP HOT RODS & CLASSIC CARS TO SHINE

Rods N Rhodies, Inc. is sad to announce that the 2020 Rods N Rhodies Car Show and Benefit has been canceled.

This decision was not taken lightly, and it was not made before much deliberation. The Rods N Rhodies Inc./Transportation Solutions Board of Directors feel that the safety of volunteers, visitors and our community is of the utmost importance, and it is the only decision that could be made with that concern in mind.

We are already looking forward to the 2021 Rods N Rhodies Car Show and Benefit, and we will continue to work hard to make it a memorable world-class event.

MISSION STATEMENT

To support community projects and provide automotive assistance to those in need through an annual benefit car show event.

The Rods N Rhodies Car Show and Benefit is an event that developed in 2007 by Merchants of Old Town with a vision to market and promote the Old Town area. In 2011, MOOT merged with the Florence Area Chamber of Commerce who continued with that vision. In 2018 Rods N Rhodies became its own entity, run by volunteers, with a renewed vision to support community projects and provide automotive assistance to those in need, with a fun filled weekend featuring classic and creative restoration of automobiles.
