Skagit County Fairgrounds2026 RRR Show and Shine!
A Father’s Day show and shine for off-road enthusiasts welcomes rigs of every style at Coastal Farm & Ranch. Entry is $20 per rig, and proceeds support efforts to keep local trails open. Participants can register their rigs, reconnect with friends, and put builds to the test on the RRR-RTI ramp or the teeter totter balance challenge. Dash plaques will be provided to every entry, and awards will be presented in five categories: Show, Street Legal, Weekend Warrior, Extreme, and Side by Sides or UTVs. A Kids Corner will offer activities and goody bags, and parents are asked to stay with their children while they play. A large raffle will feature prizes donated by partners, with $1 tickets and proceeds benefiting trail access, and the grand prize is a CSI Offroad Black Ice Dual Zone 48 quart fridge and freezer paired with a W51 CSI lithium battery. Trailer parking is available nearby for rigs that are not street legal. A local 4H Club will be on site cooking lunch in front of Coastal Farm and Garden.
