CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
Traffic queen Sondra Solarte participated in the Chicago Auto Show's "Media Dash" Monday morning, on the last day of the exhibition.
Chicago media personalities got a taste of what it's like to prepare the show room for an exhibition like the auto show, including some car-washing, vacuuming, organizing products and even eating a bit of Ryba's Fudge – a longtime auto show tradition.
Sondra competed to complete her tasks one-handed as she brought the race to viewers live from McCormick Place!
Family Day is the last day to check out the 2013 Chicago Auto Show before next year – be sure to check it out this President's Day.
There are lots of fun activities for all ages planned, including special guests for kids and test-driving opportunities for moms and dads.
