Boulder City Review

Members of Boulder City Sunrise Rotary fight off the smoke to show off the stars and namesake of the event.

The live auction brought in tens of thousands of dollars thanks to donated items from the community, which included vehicles, trips and household items.

The Whiskey Brotherhood were again on hand to entertain the crowd with covers of hits from the ‘70 and ’80s.

Hundreds of vehicles of all ages were on hand to admire Saturday.

Another big hit is the annual car show, sponsored by the Boulder City Cruisin’ Association.

Boulder City Sunrise Rotary members Joe Stubitz and Eric Estes, along with emcee Mike Pacini (far right) all donned their best hot dog attire during the live auction.
