Haldimand Museums’ Annual Car and Truck Show back for 17th year

Haldimand Museums is pleased to present its 17th Annual Car & Truck Show, taking place Sunday June 25, 11:00 am – 3:00 pm, at the Selkirk Community Park (17 Kent Street, Selkirk).

Admission to the family-friendly event is by donation; a $5.00 entry fee applies to participating vehicles.

The popular get-together provides a place for vintage and specialty car and truck enthusiasts from around southern Ontario to celebrate their love of all things automotive. “We had a great turnout last year and the show was fun for everyone,” says Wilson MacDonald Memorial School Museum Curator Dana Stavinga. “We are hoping the weather will be cooperative but, if we do have rain, the event will be postponed to the fall.”

While the show is centered around cars and trucks, there will be so much more to see and do! Visitors and participants can enjoy a silent auction, craft displays, entertainment by DJ Frank Vessero, tasty foods served by Shelly’s Family Dining & Catering Services of Kohler, door prizes for the drivers and a presentation of 25 trophies in a variety of categories at 2:30 pm.

“Museums aren’t always associated with antique car and truck shows,” adds Haldimand County Supervisor of Heritage & Culture Anne Unyi, “but we encompass all things heritage and culture. These vehicles offer some great lessons in automotive history and social and cultural trends.”
