(June 28, Laughlin, Nev — Laughlin invites all custom classics and hot rods to enjoy the fun in the sun as part of the Winter Break Car Rally on January 6, 2007. "Come check out the cool rides and warm, fun-filled winter days," exclaims Shirlee Leibee from the local River Cruizers Car Club.

All makes and models of cars will be on display at the Riverside and the Edgewater Casino Parking Lots.

Awards will be presented at the Winter Break Sock Hop, presented by Humana, Inc. at the River Palms on Saturday evening.

The next day, the cars will cruise Route 66 on a Poker Run beginning with an included brunch at Desert Springs Fairway Homes. Continuing to Oatman, participants will draw cards, trying to secure the best poker hand before returning to Laughlin.
