Press Release -
CAMBRIDGE ANTIQUE FAIR TO INCLUDE CAR SHOW
Cambridge, MN
The Cambridge
Antique Fair is street legal in more ways than one!
In conjunction
with its 18th annual event, the Cambridge Antique Fair is coming of age
by featuring a vintage car show in addition to its hundreds of antique
dealer booths. The show is renamed the Cambridge Antique Fair & Car Show
to recognize the change.
The addition of
the car exhibition is intended to broaden public interest in the event.
“Everyone appreciates a vintage automobile that has been cared for like
a baby. The auto enthusiasts that exhibit at our show take immense pride
in their vehicles, and we are delighted to give them an outlet to share
and reward their passion,” said Shawn Hewitt of North-Trek Promotions.
Space will be
provided for at least fifty 1972 and earlier vehicles, with different
cars on exhibit on both Saturday and Sunday. Attendees of the antique
show will have a chance to review the autos on exhibit and vote for
their favorites on each day. The winning entry each day will receive the
Cambridge Antique Fair & Car Show People’s Choice Trophy and a cash
award of $100. But winning isn’t the only thing, as the interaction
between thousands of show attendees and auto exhibitors will rekindle
old friendships and build new ones. Collectors of antique cars will also
be able to buy, sell and trade rare parts in the outdoor area of the
antique show.
The admission
price to the show is good for both days, allowing attendees to see two
car shows for the price of one. Kids age 16 and under are free with
parents, making this a family friendly event. It makes a great day trip
from the urban population centers of the region.
The Cambridge
Antique Fair is known as one of the most popular Minnesota antique shows
and continues to attract a large crowd of devoted followers. It is
always held on the first weekend of August at the Isanti County
Fairgrounds in Cambridge, Minnesota. This year’s dates are August 1-2,
2009.
