The 4th annual car, truck, motorcycle and tractor show will be taking place in Mitchell’s Bay on Saturday.
“It’s an afternoon for families to get together. We are going to have bouncy castles, face painting and a bunch of vendors and a food concession,” said Karen Miles, a member of the Mitchell’s Bay Area Association.
Miles said there will be prizes for the four categories of vehicles and there will be plenty to do at the event.
“There was a tool place that set up last year selling tools, wood signs, scented candles, Tupperware, different things like that. We have a penny sale table. If they come out there is the walking trail they can go on, they can go to the beach. We have two great restaurants. Everybody in the community sponsors and helps and this helps the businesses around here getting people out to participate in the car show.”
Miles said the proceeds from the event, stays in the Mitchell’s Bay community.
“It goes towards the trails and just recently we got some purple martin bird houses. We have helped getting the play ground equipment with Chatham-Kent. We put a brand new sign in Mitchell’s Bay. Picnic tables at the beach. We are looking to help people get out in the outdoors.”
The event runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
