Sound-Off Competition - Car Audio (https://www.facebook.com/mecacaraudio/)

MECA Sound Quality League Car Audio Competition: The sound system competition, also known as

sound-off or SPL - Sound Pressure League, is part of our event for car audio enthusiasts to compete

against each other to see who can produce the highest sound pressure levels in their vehicles right

here at the heart of Lake Sakakawea.

The objective is to generate the loudest and most powerful sound possible with clarity and minimum

distortion. Originality, custom work & design will also be taken into consideration.

Burnout Contest

The Burnout Contest is your chance to perform and show how well you can keep the vehicle stationary

while spinning its wheels on the asphalt by "The Point". You have 30 seconds to create some smoke.

All participants must sign a waiver.

Parade

On Saturday, there will be a parade from Edwin Loe Elementary School to the 4 Bears Water Park. This will take place during the benefit breakfast being held at the elementary school. Any classic vehicle is welcome to join the parade, not only those entered in the car show. Meet at the parking lot across the street from the school 10:00-10:30 to be ready to leave at 10:45. The parking lot is on the west side of the school. The parade will be led by Miss Norsk Hostfest, Erika Littlefield

Pit Stop & Shop Scavenger Hunt

There will be a scavenger hunt at participating New Town businesses. Collect a sticker at each stop and share photos on social media for a chance to win a prize. Click here for details.

This year, the entry fees will once again be donated to the New Town City Library for their First LEGO League and First LEGO Robotics. This program has been the recipient of the entry fees since 2023.

The proceeds from the benefit breakfast will be given to the New Town Eagles Backpack Program.
