The Port Austin Chamber of Commerce will bring back the village’s Carfest in late September, where classic cars will be displayed similar to other car shows held in Huron County. (Tribune File Photo)
Port Austin planning return of Carfest Classic car show to take place in late September ROBERT CREENAN robert.creenan@hearst.com An old favorite event will be making its return to Port Austin later in September. The Port Austin Carfest will be held from 2 to 6 p.m. on Sept. 25 in the parking lot next to the old gymnasium at 8861 Line Street. Steve Penn, a trustee with the Port Austin Chamber of Commerce which is sponsoring the event, said there previously was a car show years ago that was popular among classic car owners and the people who lived in the area. It was held along Lake Street and despite its
popularity, the organizers eventually could not put it on anymore. “The people who had sponsored it and put it together got older and they didn’t want to do it anymore, so it fell by the wayside,” Penn said. The chamber of commerce has been trying to put on events in Port Austin that are not just during the heart of the summer, since lots of tourists come there and they want to stretch the summer season into when kids start going back to school. This lead the chamber to resurrect this car show. The show will not feature any judged competitions, as Penn described it more as an opportunity for like-minded people to get together and
have an easygoing way to spend an afternoon. He said that if someone does have a classic car, they likely have friends who are classic car owners as well. “If you have an antique car or classic truck, you’re welcome to bring it,” Penn said. “Let everybody see what you got.” A four-piece band will be playing during the show in a tent at the village green, where the Port Austin Farmer’s Market is normally held. For classic car owners to show off what they have collected, registration costs $15. The first 100 people that register are planned to get a dash plaque. Penn said that if this show has a decent turnout, it will likely continue in the future.
