We are delighted to announce that the Petaluma Kmart (store #3501) took home first place for their shopping cart tribute to American Graffiti.  As part of the Kmart Renaissance program, 15 Bay Area Kmart stores competed for best shopping cart float this week in Oakland. Our Kmart based its float on the police car from the movie, American Graffiti.  As you know, American Graffiti was filmed in Petaluma and here at The Plaza North, we host the Salute to American Graffiti Cruise-in and opening social.  So it was a great tie-in to both Petaluma and The Plaza North.  The float was meticulously constructed over a two week period of time and even has working lights!  It’s safely back in Petaluma now and will make a reappearance at our next Salute to American Graffiti car show.
