The annual Wiggins Car Show once again demonstrated the power of community, raising an incredible $9,000 for the Wiggins School District Music Department through the support of local businesses, volunteers, participants, and attendee across Colorado. The funds will help support music education opportunities for students, ensuring that young musicians continue to have access to programs, equipment, and experiences that enrich their education and personal growth. This year’s event was made possible by countless individuals who dedicated their time and energy to making the day a success. Organizers would like to extend a special thank you to the many student volunteers who gave up part of their weekend to help with setup, registration, cleanup, and event operations. Their hard work, positive attitudes, and commitment to serving their community played a significant role in the success of the event.
The car show also featured talented student performers who took the stage and showcased the results of their dedication and growing musical abilities. Their performances served as a reminder of why supporting music education matters and highlighted the incredible talent being developed within the community. The event would not have been possible without the generosity of its sponsors. Organizers would like to recognize major sponsors Trout Detailing, Roma Pizza, Napa Auto Parts, and Korf, whose support helped make the event a reality. Their investment in local students and community events continues to make a meaningful difference. In addition to celebrating a successful fundraiser, organizers are excited to announce that the Wiggins Car Show will be hosted by the Sidell Foundation moving forward.
The Sidell Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting youth development, education, creative arts, adaptability initiatives, and community engagement. The foundation’s mission is to create opportunities that empower individuals, strengthen
communities, and encourage creativity, growth, and service. “The car show has become much more than a vehicle exhibition;’ organizers said. “It’s an opportunity for the community to come together, celebrate local talent, support students, and invest in the future. We are honored to continue building on that tradition:’ While the event will now operate under the Sidell Foundation, attendees can expect the same community centered atmosphere that has made the Wiggins Car Show such a beloved local tradition. The foundation is committed to preserving the event’s purpose while exploring new opportunities to expand its impact in the years ahead.
The success of this year’s event serves as a testament to what can be accomplished when a community works together. From the students who volunteered their time, to the performers who shared their talents, to the sponsors, vendors, car owners, and families who attended, every contribution helped make a lasting impact. As plans begin for next year’s event, organizers extend their heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated and supported the cause. Thanks to the generosity of this community, the Wiggins School District Music Department will receive $9,000 in support, and the future
