It's that time again where we are ready to host one of the largest Volvo enthusiast events in the country. This year we have something extremely special to celebrate. This is IPD's 60th anniversary! We will also be celebrating IPD's 40th Garage Sale event! IPD’s Garage Sale is known for having some of the most unique Volvos on display. IPD has created one of the best Volvo cars shows in the country! During the event IPD will be offering some of the largest discounts on all items! We look forward to seeing everyone.

Our annual Garage Sale has become such a fixture in the Volvo community that we have people asking about it months in advance. We’ve heard this event described as one of the largest Volvo gathering on the West Coast and it’s hard to argue. It’s massive and we look forward to this event each and every year.

As usual, we have some great events planned this year so mark your calendar for Saturday May 20th 2023 and join us and other Volvo enthusiasts for prizes, car show, raffle drawings, ipd Plinko, swap meet deals, Show'n Shine and sales event. We guarantee that you will see some awe inspiring cars, meet some like minded Volvo lovers and have a great time.

When: Saturday May 20th, 2023 - 9:00am to 3:00pm

Car Show Main Lot and Show N' Shine
Main Lot- The main lot car entries range from custom builds to low-mile, well-maintained beauties for everyone to appreciate. We do our best to showcase many different models in the main lot. If your car does not make it into the main lot, we invite everyone to come join us and display their Volvo in the Show N’ Shine area. This is an extremely popular area for enthusiasts to hang out. The Show N' Shine is first come first park so be early if you plan to attend. We look forward to seeing you here. If you would like to submit your car for the main lot please email Chris@ipdusa.com Thank you

Show N' Shine Parking: CALLING ALL VOLVOS! If your car is not featured in the main parking lot, that doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be seen! Cars in the Show N' Shine will be across the street from IPD in the parking lot of MESD. For a $5.00 donation you can park your Volvo along with other enthusiasts, making it easy for everyone to browse their favorite models. Cars parked in the Show N' Shine area are on a first come first served basis! You can enter the Show N' Shine area beginning at 8:00am.

Swap Meet

That’s right, if you grew up watching The Price is Right and always dreamed of playing PLINKO, now’s your chance. The IPD PlINKO board gives you a chance to win raffle tickets. Raffle tickets can be used for the blue and red table which features various products. For $5 you get 4 PLINKO chips. Drop the chips down the PLINKO board. If you land in one of the “IPD” slots you win 5 raffle tickets. That means you have a chance to win up to 20 total raffle tickets for the price of $5.00. Play at your own risk!

Heads or Tails

Heads or Tails is a fun game that incorporates Process of Elimination. For $20.00 you get one set of cards. One card says Heads and the other card says Tails. Each round you and many other participants will choose to lift one card and one card only. The game instructor will flip a coin featuring one side that says Heads and the other that says Tails. If you’re holding up a card that matches the coin flip, you move on to the next round. This process continues until there is no one left. If you happen to lose, don’t go anywhere. We will play two full rounds of this game. The first round has a chance to win $400.00 IPD gift certificate. The second round has a chance to win $200.00 IPD gift certificate. Remember, no one loses in this game. All proceeds go to Nursingale. Heads or Tails cards can be purchased from CS agents or at the main MC booth during the event.

Raffle

Raffle tickets are $1.00. Each Raffle ticket comes with two stubs. During the event IPD has two colored tables in the raffle area. One blue table and one red table. Each Table features various items donated by our amazing vendors. Place one ticket stub in the item bin you wish to compete for. Keep the corresponding ticket. Each table has a designated time where IPD will be calling out the winners from each item bin. Good luck. Remember no one goes home losing anything, all the proceeds from the raffle go to Nursingale. Thank you for your support.

Sorry guys, no dice for me this year. No vacation time with the new job so it ain't gonna happen. Not saying someone won't get banned during it, but I won't be there in person.
 
SOB it's on a rally weekend again! I'll still try and show up at Harlard's house so I can drink cheap beer and make a fool of myself.

does that mean the PIR stage will be on the corresponding friday again? because that would be excellent for me.
 
This the type of thing that's worth driving 1200 miles round trip in a clapped pushrod Volvo project car?
no, but do it anyway

I plan on leaving from Shasta Friday morning and likely taking the scenic route through Bend to stop and pick up ciders and beer at Avid Cider/Immersion brewing if anyone going north wants to caravan, hit me up to coordinate if you are into that adventure.
