The always fascinating Downtown Revival Car Show ~ the seventh ~ hosted by Esther Chapter #3, Order of the Eastern Star, will take place on Saturday, July 13, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., on Carson Street in Carson City between Robinson and Fifth streets.

“Roll-in begins at Robinson Street at 6 a.m.,” according to a news release posted on Eventbrite. “All cars must enter on Robinson Street and North Carson Street. No saving spots; all groups must enter together to park together. Judging begins at 10 a.m. with awards at 2 p.m.”

Pre-registration is through July 6.

“Registration {is} limited to first 400,” according to the chapter. “Pre-registration is $40 and includes a T-shirt and ‘goodie bag.’ The day-of-show registration is $50 with no T-shirt or ‘goodie bag.’ Personal ‘Pick’ Awards will be presented by local celebrates.”

The car show is rain or shine. One never knows if summer thunder showers may head our way, but the cars would be worth seeing even in a downpour!

I’ve gone for several years and had a blast. It’s one of the most-entertaining and friendly car shows I’ve attended, and I’ve been to many such shows and concours d’Elegances.
