The second annual Veterans In The Park Car Show will be held this Saturday, May 28th with registration starting at 8:00 AM at the Jackson River Sports Complex. The show is scheduled to run from 10:00 AM to 4:30 PM. The City of Covington, Parks and Recreation will also have their Summer Kick-Off Event starting at 3:00 PM with lots of kids activities and going to 7:00 PM.
Kars Unlimited began this show last year to help raise money for the VFW’s located in Covington, Clifton Forge and Bath County. All money raised will be divided between these three posts. Our local veterans will benefit from the money raised to help support programs the VFWs have. Although the weather last year was not ideal, the show was a success with 78 vehicles on display. This year is expected to be even better. Throughout the day, club members will be selling chances to win a Thompson Center Compass
6.5 Creedmoor with a 3×9 scope, along with a sling, case, and a box of shells, donated by Riley Keys and Guns, located at 2019 S. Rayon Dr., Covington, VA. Tickets cost $5 for 6 tickets. Also, there will be 50/50 drawings, door prizes for car show entrants and vendors on site. Also, Kars Unlimited will be honoring all branches of military service at the beginning of the show. Concessions will be open as well.
Events put on by Kars Unlimited would not be possible if it wasn’t for the sponsors who graciously donate every year. This year’s show is sponsored by Covington Car Company, M & M Used Cars, Garten Trucking, Riley Keys & Guns, Highlands Community Bank, Wright Way Motors, Car Shop, Inc., Napa Wilson Auto Parts, Help Insurance and Covington Parks and Recreation. Please support these local businesses and say thank you for helping raise money for our veterans who sacrifice for us so we can be free and safe.
