We received an awesome review from Mike R. about Iola GearKids!

"This year, there was one change that really impressed me. There was a big tent and under the tent was a big sand pile and it was stocked with Tonka Trucks and there were benches around the sides of the sand pile. Dad could go look at the cars or shop for parts, the kids could play in the sand pile, and mom had a nice
place to sit in the shade and watch the kids and enjoy the day. What a great idea. I have never seen a more kid friendly place at a car show." Big thanks to Faulks Bros. Construction, Inc. for providing the sand! ⛱
