+ Any tips?
Yup. Wear a hat, wear sunscreen, wear walking shoes, bring water. Make sure kids do the same. It will be crowded, so be prepared to keep your wallet/pocketbook safe. Bring chairs if you want to sit around. Bring $$ for the good food & drinks from local eateries and vendors. If you can, bring a toy to donate.
D.J. Frogger at every Cruise-In, great music, hula hoop contests for kids, lots to do and see!!
