On May 16, the Shipping and Receiving group hosted the Grease and Gears Car Show for the first time since 2019. Originally conceived as a team-building activity for Logistics Operations, this event has evolved into a Sandia tradition. The event has been on hold since 2020 due to COVID-19.

This year’s show, held north of the Shipping and Receiving building, showcased a colorful array of more than 40 cars and motorcycles owned by Sandia staff. The revival of the Grease and Gears Car Show marks a return to normalcy and reinforces the enduring spirit of togetherness and innovation that defines Sandia.
