Scoop Waukegan will be July 12 and 13 on Genesee and Water streets in downtown Waukegan.
Scoop Waukegan returns with classic and custom car owners driving a loop downtown on July 12, with a cruise-in July 13. Nowadays, it’s a car show and car parade that brings families, car enthusiasts and the generally curious together downtown on a summer weekend.
“This is an event based on a common practice from the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s where people would hang out downtown and show off their cool cars and enjoy one another’s company,” he said. “This event is meant to emulate that event from our history.”“It is basically a car show with cars of all types,” he said. “This year as always we are focusing on the classic cars and matching the classic cars with amazing food and live entertainment.
“He would scoop up passengers and drop them off and basically do a loop in the downtown. Somehow that stuck,” he said. “There’s a vetting process so it’s not just anybody’s grocery-getter can get in there,” he said. “It’s got to be a show-worthy car.”“Those types of cool cars from Waukegan’s history and also the history of the United States, the emergence of the vehicle,” he said. “Where better to highlight and pay tribute to these vehicles than a lot of these American-made cars from that era. You’ll get your Corvettes and you’ll get your Camaros and you’ll get every manner of Chevrolet.
“The headliner on Saturday night is hometown hero, Raphael Mendez and the Fabulous House Rockers from 6:30-8:30 p.m.,” he said.
