West Suburban Shrine Club’s

“Roaring ‘57s” Parade Unit

Soup up your parade with the Roaring ‘57s, the parade unit of the West Suburban Shrine Club of the Medinah Shriners. Our eight speedy little cars are each painted in a different colour – “They’re like gumdrops,” says our Pit Crew Chief, Petey Papadogianis.

Launched at the start of the 2004 season, our already popular, award-winning parade performances steal the show with formation driving, interlocking circles, and enthusiastic audience interaction. Shriners know how to have a good time and the feelings are contagious. Click here for an informative brochure.

Email Petey to ask how you can schedule our eight newly repainted, tricked-out, award-winning ‘57 Chevy-styled mini-cars to perform in your parade and/or read more here.

There are no battery-powered nor otherwise wimpy motors here. Each car’s gasoline engine roars to life with 6½ horses of pure power, baby!
