A fund raiser to benefit the Dr. Sebastian George Cancer Foundation and the Bread of Life charities the event, held at the pristine INDIAN WELLS TENNIS GARDENS, is a feast for the car buff and a great days event for the entire family.

The Palm Springs Crusin’ Association is an all volunteer non-profit organization whose purpose is to promote camaraderie among car enthusiasts and to stage and promote charitable car events. It started out as a small gathering of car enthusiasts that met at Shakey’s Pizza Parlor parking lot in Palm Springs 15 years ago. People would get together to admire each other’s cars, and swap information. It was started by two local car lovers, Loren Orcutt and Bob Hunt. Their first gathering consisted of approximately 30 cars.
As the participation grew, the club moved to Cathedral City to accommodate their size and stayed there for several years. What originally started as small group has no First Saturday of the Month, September thru June 4-8 pm, open to all car enthusiasts!

The cars where incredible. They are really nice and cool. It looks gorgeous and unique.
Antiques is one of the most interesting category. We visited this event last year, and It would be great if owners could provide online description and history of thier cars.
