The show is Saturday. It will NOT be postponed.
Disregard any conflicting information you may hear.
In accordance with university regulations,
there is to be NO ALCOHOL at the car show.
The police will enforce the open container law.
We like to promote a safe and enjoyable environment for people of all ages.
There is to be NO SHOWBOATING at the car show.
This means NO BURNOUTS and NO SPEEDING both in the lot and around campus.
The police will be at the show to enforce this. Drive slowly when arriving at and leaving the show.
For those of you who have yet to experience a UConn Car Club show, we tend to draw a very large and diverse crowd. Anyone who has been to one of our previous events can attest that there is something for everyone.
