For anyone who jittered in the 40's, be-bopped in the 50's and survived the 60's there is something for you to see this weekend as the 20th Anniversary of the ADK Nationals Car Show rolls into Lake George! (Sept 5-7) Thousands of classic antiques, custom collectibles and hot rods make up the huge event which sprawls over acres and fills the village with color and excitement. To check out all the details go to: http://www.albanyrodsandkustoms.com/. The volunteer organization, Albany Rods & Kustoms who has put their heart and soul into this have, over the years, created a signature event that pleases the whole family while really making sure that the reverence for the automobile stays the highlight and focus. There are all sorts of vendors, special drawings, contests, car parades, and things for all ages to do and see. From what we here....this year there are FIREWORKS planned for THREE NIGHTS in a row--starting tonight!
And if that is not enough....just a short hop away is the ADK Vette Fest (9/5-7) being held at Roaring Brook Ranch on RT 9N, a Fiddlers Jamboree (9/6-8) being held in the town of Thurman and a special show called "The Seneca Ray Stoddard Magic Lantern Show" (9/5-6) at the Wood Theater in nearby Glens Falls. Seneca Ray Stoddard was the famous photographer who chronicled life in the ADK's during the late 1800-early 1900's.
