Doing the car show was the brainchild of Dave Jaskot. After a meeting with other car enthusiasts at the Baker Barn in Carleton, ours, along with others, several dates for car shows were finalized. Things came together quickly with Dave's guidance and the help of club members like Alice, Clayton, and Kenny from the band. Club members did a phenomenal job of passing out flyers during other car shows, hooked us up with vendors, and introduced me to Jen, the ice cream lady; Christine, a volunteer at the Humane Society; and Penny, who makes some fantastic wreaths. What a great group of people to work with to bring this event to the Center to support the Adult Day Service program. I can't thank all of them enough.
In addition to the work of those associated with the Center, there are several other moving parts. Al VanWasenhova, the Township Supervisor, graciously allowed us to use the grassy area around the walking path, provided the ground conditions were suitable. Despite the rainy days leading up to the show, the weather was perfect, with the shade from the trees, a gentle breeze, and the band playing under the pavilion. There were guest appearances by Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline, Elvis, Mike, and Cherly. There were Seventy impressive cars representing 100 years of innovation on display. We had several vendors, the sheriff and fire departments, and the Humane Society pups.
Lastly, a heartfelt thanks to all the car enthusiasts and our friends from Bakers Barn who came out to support the program; your generosity was greatly appreciated.
