The ACE Car Show at Crandall Park

On Sunday morning, the roads around Crandall Park were filled with nifty roadsters of all sorts as car enthusiasts brought their prized possessions to the 15th annual Car, Truck, & Motorcycle Show sponsored by the Adirondack Car Enthusiasts (ACE). ACE, a non-profit organization, was started in February of 2008, and sponsors two shows a year to raise money for local charity.

The $10 registration fee and spectator donations benefit Operation Santa Claus, which is a program that invites underprivileged children to write letters to Santa Claus… Then, volunteers “adopt” these letters, and reply to the children and/or provide gifts.

This event took place on the field at Crandall Park, and nostalgic music provided by JP Henderson filled the air… The event was kicked off with the playing of The National Anthem and Kate Smith’s rendition of God Bless America; then, popular old songs like “Stand By Me” by Ben E. King harkened spectators back to an age gone by as a variety of classic cars, sports cars and hot rods lined up for all to enjoy.
