SE Idaho Days: The car-show that almost wasn’t?!

South East Idaho Days at the Bannock County Event Center in Pocatello, Idaho, 03-04MAY2024.  The car show was supposed to be on the 4th.

The cars that showed up on the 4th were literally last second arrivals as, apparently, the festival organizers failed to drive local car enthusiasts to pose at the free event.

The call to action literally went out the day before, from a local car club called Idaho Classics and Modern Muscle (ICAMM).

Part-5 Chrome in the Dome, March 2024

In 1970 (Cold War), the first in the U.S. fully enclosed colligate sports arena opened; the ASISU (Associated Students of Idaho State University) Minidome.  In 1988 (Cold War), the name was changed to Holt Arena to honor the athletic director who pushed for the creation of the Minidome.  In January 2024 the name was changed, again, to ICCU (Idaho Central Credit Union) Dome, due to the arena’s recent refreshment being funded mostly by the financial institution.

Holt Arena 2024: Parking Lot Queens (Kings?)

On the 15th-16th of March 2024, Idaho State University (ISU)-College of Technology Automotive Program held its ‘Chrome in the Dome’ car show.

There were several cool old cars in the parking lot outside the (now formerly) Holt Arena, on the Idaho State University campus.  Here is a sampling;

SAC show 2023: MUSTANGS, OLD AND NEW-ER

Hunger Games U.S.A.: Pocatello SAC show, June 2023.

On 10JUN2023, the Oldies Rod & Custom Car Show was held in Historic Oldtown Pocatello, Idaho, to benefit the Senior Activity Center‘s (SAC) food delivery service: “It’s the people that we serve are underserved in our community. And so, it really helps with the nutrition for them so that they can hopefully stay in their homes longer and with activities and everything else. That’s part of our goal to.”-Pam Landon, Secretary for SAC

The automobile show was free to the public, proceeds from food vender sales, and raffle ticket sales, went to help SAC.  Just to let you know how much the help is needed, in 2022 the Pocatello SAC served more than 22-thousand meals to local old people.

Here is a sampling of the vehicles that were there (click on each image to make them bigger):

Walk around video of the show, which was supported by many local business sponsors, most of the video has no audio as they were blaring copyrighted music at the event:

Apparently, the first Oldies Rod & Custom Car Show to benefit Pocatello SAC was on 10JUN2018.
