Treat dad Father’s Day to support worthy cause
June 10, 2016 · 0 Comments
The third annual Let’s Rock ‘n Roll MS Away family fun day is fast approaching.
The annual family day and car show takes place at the Schomberg fairgrounds Father’s Day (June 19), running from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
It promises to be a fun-filled 1950s-themed afternoon of good, wholesome fun, including a classic car show, live entertainment, children’s activities, Elvis, old fashioned barbecue, unique vendors and much, much more. Last year’s event featured more than 200 cars and welcomed more than 2,000 guests.
Headlining the Main Stage is Bruno Nesci, with his incredible “Elvis” show, as well as other local home-grown talent. Attractions throughout the fairgrounds include an incredible Car Show featuring classic, custom, European and street rods, complete with Best in Show prizes. For the youngsters, they can see a birds of prey show, catch a glimpse of statue-like “Silver Elvis,” enjoy a caricature artist, pony rides, petting zoo, and even a dunk tank. Indulge with a slice of wood burning pizza, burger, poutine, hand-cut fries, fresh squeezed lemonade or ice cream straight from the ice cream truck — everything for the young and young at heart.
Monia Isgro, chair of the committee, is afflicted with MS and knows first-hand how important it is to raise awareness of this awful disease that strikes both men and women in the primes of their lives.
Tickets for the event are available at the gate. A $5 donation will get you in.
