Columbia River Corvettes is a non-profit organization located in the Longview/Kelso area. Each year we host a car show on the first Saturday in July. This fundraiser--the Bow-Tie Bash--is our major fundraising event.

Since our first car show in 1993, Columbia River Corvettes has donated over $39,900 to local charities. They have included United Way of Cowlitz County, Neighbors in Need, Salvation Army Angel Tree, Hospice, Community House, Children's Community Resources, and High School Car Shows.

This year our 18th Annual Bow-Tie Bash Car Show and Shine was our best event ever, with over 300 entries, and the biggest crowd in downtown Longview.

The success of our show is dependent on donations from local businesses, entry fees, and raffle ticket receipts.
