WEEKEND: Cruz-In revs up Saturday

PORT ANGELES — The seventh annual Darlene Marihugh Memorial Cruz-In is Saturday.

Cars and motorcycles will be on display at Cowboy Country, 923 E. First St., and Puerto de Angeles Family Mexican Restaurant, 940 E. First St., beginning at 3 p.m.

The Cruz-in is open to all hot rods, customs, classics, muscle cars and motorcycles.

Puerto de Angeles will offer menu specials, and Cowboy Country will hold an outdoor sale in conjunction with the event.

Wayne “The Peregrine” King will exhibit and “fire off” his restored record-setting 1963 Doss, Clayton and King top-fuel dragster.

More than 120 door prizes donated by area businesses will be given to participants displaying their cars and bikes at the event.

A raffle will be held, highlighted by a custom-painted and upholstered hot-rod pedal car.

Fourteen entries will be picked for special award plaques.

All proceeds will go to high school seniors for scholarships in memory of Darlene Marihugh, an avid hot rodder who died Oct. 23, 2005, at the age of 40.

Recent Port Angeles High School graduate Mia Piper received this year’s $2,000 scholarship.

To date, the scholarship fund has given eight scholarships totaling $13,500.
