Fun with the Easter Bunny

Five year-old Lilly Druer got a hug from the Easter Bunny at the First Responders Easter Eggstravaganza held at Kingston Park on Monday. Hundreds of children enjoyed the face painting, tours of fire trucks and more.

With RM/Sotheby’s anniversary celebrations less than two months away, Rob Myers is still preaching chaos. Myers, founder and chairman of RM/Sotheby’s, is the main force behind the big event, slated for June 21-22 in Chatham-Kent as a celebration of 40 years for the auto restoration business and auction house that he started. To help celebrate, Myers said he’s working to have members of the Porsche, Ferrari and Maserati clubs of the region attend. These clubs will convene at RM/Sotheby’s on the Saturday. Myers chaos will begin on the Friday night. He said he’s going to soon announce who will be the “high-profile” parade marshal for the RM/Sotheby’s parade of unique vehicles and oddball attractions.

When you add such things as a Nudie Car – a rhinestone-studded vehicle designed by Nudie Cohn – or a 1950s pickup with a “great, big chicken in the back,” the Flintstone’s car, the Batmobile and the General Lee (from the TV show Dukes of Hazzard), as well as other one-of-a-kind vehicles, it can get silly. The parade will flow through the downtown. The annual RetroFest Cruise follows the parade. It will begin at an as-yet-undetermined location and will wind up in the downtown, as members of the Kent Historic Auto Club and outof-town classic car buffs showcase their vintage vehicles. Myers would love to see thousands of classic cars in Chatham on the Friday night and Saturday. Tickets for Friday night’s concert in Tecumseh Park by the Sam Roberts Band are now on sale.
