Vintage rides and roaring engines will take over Mariposa Lodge in Apple Valley on Saturday, as the Sun City Cruisers host their 15th annual Car & Motorcycle Show from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is free, and this year's proceeds will support High Desert Second Chance, a Hesperia-based nonprofit that serves more than 75,000 San Bernardino County residents annually.
The event, held at the Mariposa Lodge clubhouse at 19311 Jess Ranch Parkway, is organized by the Sun City Cruisers, according to Victorville Daily Press.
The Sun City Cruisers are hosting the show at the clubhouse. Mariposa Lodge is one of two clubhouses inside Del Webb Sun City, with outdoor park-like grounds alongside fitness and event facilities.

A Nonprofit Beneficiary
This year's beneficiary is High Desert Second Chance, a nonprofit food bank. The organization is a Hesperia-based nonprofit, the Victor Valley News Group reports.
High Desert Second Chance assists more than 75,000 San Bernardino County residents each year, according to the news group's coverage. That scale underscores why small-scale fundraisers like Saturday's car show matter beyond a single afternoon of classic cars and chrome.
Free Admission For Spectators
Vehicle registration for the 2025 show was capped at 200 entries, with pre-registration fees set at $40 for cars and $25 for motorcycles, according to event materials from SoCal Car Culture. The 2025 show offered qualifying pre-registrants an event T-shirt and an entry-parking window. The upcoming show is expected to feature nearly 300 registrants.
Admission is free for spectators who aren't exhibiting a vehicle.
A Tradition Of Rotating Charitable Support
The Sun City Cruisers have a long-running practice of spreading their fundraising support across different High Desert nonprofits year to year. Previous shows raised funds for the Rock'n Our Disabilities Foundation in 2025 and for A Better Way Domestic Violence Shelter in 2023, according to event listings from the San Bernardino County First District Supervisor's office.
Sun City Apple Valley is an age-restricted community that opened in 2004 and has 1,700 homes, according to 55places.
