New Fairfield Lions Club's CAR SHOW at SQUANTZ POND, SUNDAY, OCT 10

New Fairfield Lions Club’s Classic Car & Truck Show on Sunday, October 10 at Squantz Pond

The calendar has turned to October, pumpkins and scarecrows are everywhere and the weather is starting to cool off. All the trees around Candlewood Lake and Squantz Pond are filled with beautiful fall colors. This makes the perfect setting for the 28th Annual New Fairfield Lions Club Vintage-Classic & Custom Car, Truck & Motorcycle Show at Squantz Pond State Park. Come to Squantz Pond on Sunday, October 10^th to see hundreds of classic cars, trucks and motorcycles of many different makes, models and years. The gates open at 9:00am and viewing begins at 10:00 am. Registration from 9am to 11:30am. Judging will take from 12:30pm to 2pm. All Trophies will be awarded from 3 to 4pm. There will be trophies awarded for 1^st & 2^nd Place in each class. Trophies will also be awarded to the vehicles that traveled the Longest Distance to participate and to the Best Car Club Representation & of course, the President’s Choice Award. (In the event of rain, the car show’s Rain Date is scheduled for October 17^th).

Food and Refreshments will be available for purchase at the Lions Club Food Tent and a variety of other vendors will have their goods on display for you to view and purchase as well.

Every year, it is fun to see the many familiar faces of car owners, and spectators alike, that come from all over the State of Connecticut, New York, and Massachusetts and even some from points farther.

Spectator Admission is $5.

If you would like to enter your classic car or truck into the show, there’s a $20 registration fee for showing your vehicle.

For more information or to register your vehicle for the show, please email Mark Lamanna at: nflion@hotmail.com or Ken Gucker at: mercurycat21@hotmail.com.

The Car Show is the 2^nd largest fundraiser of the New Fairfield Lions Club and all the net proceeds are redirected back into the many programs, organizations, and charities that we sponsor in New Fairfield and the Greater Danbury area. The New Fairfield Lions Club sponsors events for the Senior Citizens, Pediatric Eye Screening, CRIS Radio for the hearing impaired, Scholarships for High School Seniors, the Boy Scouts of America, and several other youth and sports organizations. We are also the proud sponsors of our young Lions in our Middle School and High School, the New Fairfield Leos Club.

We hope that you will come out and support the New Fairfield Lions Club and make all the owners of these beautiful vehicles know that people enjoy seeing the fruits of their labor in maintaining or restoring these beautiful vehicles.

As always, if you or someone you know enjoys helping others in need and enjoys giving back to the community, then the Lions Club is for you! Feel free to ask any of our Lions Club members to invite you to attend one of our events or dinner meetings. We meet on the 2^nd and 4^th Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm at Biscotti’s Restaurant in New Fairfield, CT. We will have a membership and information table at the Car Show for you to visit and to view “What We Do For You In New Fairfield”.
