    Classics to startrolling into NorthCity Park for bigcar show early onSaturday morning

    by MIKE JORDANStaff Writer

    Nate and Tawn Hall arenot only ready, they areanxious for the big show to

    get started and, as usual,the cars, trucks, motorcyclesand even some tractorsshould start rolling intoNorth City Park early onSaturday for the Summer-fest 2011 Classics in thePark Car Show.

    We will start registeringthe vehicles for the car showat North City Park by 9 a.m.Saturday and will registerparticipants in the show

    A SUMMERFES CLASSICuntil 11:30 a.m., said NateHall who along with his

    wife, Tawn, coordinates thepopular Summerfest event.But the car show goes allday long on Saturday at thepark with the awarding of trophies to start followingthe Summerfest Parade.

    Last year, 57 vehiclesshowed up for the Classicsin the Park Car Show even

    with the at-times threaten-ing weather, which along

    with a rain storm Fridayevening prob-ably kept some carshow participantsaway, say nothing of car show enthusiaststhat just like to lookat the beautifully re-stored vehicles.

    Id like to seeour car show growin number of par-

    ticipants again this year,Nate said. If we have good

    weather on Friday andagain on Saturday morn-ing, we should be seeingmore people come out toshow their vehicles andmore people will show upto see them too. The trac-tor entries were a pleasantaddition to the show last

    year and we both receiveda lot of compliments from

    people on what a nice addi-tion they were to the show.We hope more people bringtheir tractors out for theshow this year.

    I would like to see moremotorcycle entries this yeartoo, Tawn said. If the

    weather is good, I think thepeople will show up with

    their vehicles and I think with the addition of theSummerfest Craft Showand Summerfest Girl ScoutPet Show at North City

    Park, more people will beon hand to look at all the

    vehicles as well.See CLASSICS

    There are a large varietyof classes in which vehiclescan be entered some 19different classes, in fact, forthis years show.

    This fun event includesdash plaques for the first 50entrants in the car show andprizes too.

    Everybody that attendsthe car show is eligible to win a door prize, Natesaid. And that includes theparticipants and those thatcome to view the vehicles.There will be a first-, sec-ond- and third-place trophyfor each class of vehicle inthe show too. And there willbe a special ParticipantsChoice Trophy to the one vehicle those entered in thecar show feel is the best.

    But the trophy recipients

    Classics: Cars and tractors of all colors, shapes and sizes to start rolling into North City Park for big Summerfest car show early Saturday morningContinued from Summerfest 1

    Rendezvous: New three-day Summerfest eventContinued from Summerfest 1

    Pets: Plenty of picturesque pets on parade this Saturday morning in North City Park Continued from Summerfest 1

    for each class will be deter-mined by the four car show judges, most of whom willbe the same judges as last year, Nate noted.

    In addition to the beauti-ful vehicles on display, ev-erything from motorcycles,cars, tractors and trucks tosome unusual rat rods andnovelty entries, there will beentertainment with musicfrom the 1950s, 60s, 70sand 80s being played. An-nouncer for the day will beBrent Pavelko.

    The American LegionFood Stand will be operat-ing out of the North CityPark shelter house againthis year, serving rolls andcoffee in the morning andswitching over to things likehot dogs and chips beforenoon.

    I think something that will add to the number of those attending this yearscar show is the moving of both the Girl Scout PetShow and the craft showto North City Park, Tawnsaid. I think that was agreat idea that should ben-efit everyone.

    Having those two eventsat North City Park, along with the Kids AgainstHunger 5K and our carshow, should centralize thecrowd, Nate said. Thepeople coming will havea variety of things to do, whether it is coming tolook the cars over or checkout the crafts and catch the

    pet show or watch the startof the races. They can havesomething to eat or drink without having to leave thepark and enjoy some of their favorite hit songs too.

    I think my favorite partof our doing this car showis seeing all the peoplecome and talk with theparticipants about their vehicles, reminiscing withthem about the memoriesthose vehicles bring up forpeople viewing them, Tawnsaid. I would like to thankeverybody for their beinggenerous enough to sharetheir cars with us. It takes alot of effort on their part toshow them off.

    For me, hearing the ap-preciation expressed frompeople coming to look atthe cars and from those who entered their vehiclesin the car show is reward-ing, Nate said. I think myfavorite part of it, however,is hearing the people showtheir appreciation to theparticipants for the hard work they have gone to inrestoring their cars and get-ting them to the show.

    North City Park is located

    in North Lakefield at Sev-enth Avenue and DouglasStreet, just a few blocksnorth of uptown Lakefield.

    merfest Rendezvous was it.Kirchmeier said JCHS

    Board Member Todd Postcame up with the idea of hosting a rendezvous eventon the museum groundsover Summerfest weekend.

    They will be here thenight of Friday, June 24, allday Saturday, June 25, andSaturday night, as well as agood part of the day on Sun-day, June 26, Kirchmeiersaid. They will be doingsome demonstrations and will set up a teepee or twoand the big, walled tents onour grounds. There will be a variety of things for peopleto watch, as well as somethat they can join in doing.

    The group is calledthe Buffalo Ridge Ren-egades and most of themembers are from Jacksonand Estherville, Todd Postsaid. They will have someteepees erected, as wellas the 1800s-style tents.There will be a blacksmithcoming, a tomahawk throw,hopefully some rope mak-ing, and the buck-skinnersattending will have theirshow-and-tell items spreadout on blankets for folks tosee and learn about, as wellas some trade goods too. Illbe bringing my Indian arti-facts for people to look at.

    to move some Summerfestevents to North City Parkthis year so there might bea bigger concentration of people for the events heldthere, said Leanne Hen-ning, Lakefield Girl Scoutleader and coordinator of the Summerfest Girl ScoutPet Show. The Summer-fest Classics in the ParkCar Show is always heldat North City Park and theKids Against Hunger 5K starts and ends there each year as well. Now, MarcyCostello, coordinator of theSummerfest Craft Show, ismoving that show to NorthCity Park and we will beholding our third annualGirl Scout Pet Show thereas well. There should beplenty of variety of thingsfor people to see and do with all those choices atone location. It should workout well.

    The Summerfest Classicsin the Park Car Show willoccupy the majority of thespace in the park, primar-ily the north half of NorthCity Park from the east tothe west. The Kids AgainstHunger 5K Walk/Run will

    be concentrated around theparks gazebo to the eastand go south, just to the west of Bethlehem Luther-an Church where both therun and walk will kick off. And the Summerfest CraftShow will set up primarilyon the south side of NorthCity Park along Seventh Avenue North by the new

    At this point, no blackpowder events will be on forthe event, but there will be aDutch oven cook-off on Sat-urday at 5 p.m., Post said.

    We are inviting anyonein the public to enter theDutch oven cook-off andcome sample some of thefoods they cook up, Postsaid. There will be a prizeto the winner of the cook-off too.

    The museum will beopen all three days thebuck-skinners are here,Kirchmeier said. We willbe open Friday from 10 a.m.to 6 p.m., Saturday from10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and onSunday from 10 a.m. untilafter the Civil War presen-tations, which start at 2 p.m.that day.

    Kirchmeier and HennanRost, president of the JCHSboard, will give presenta-tions on the Civil War withRost talking more about thelife of the Civil War soldiersand Kirchmeier talkingabout the involvement Jack-son County residents had inthe Civil War, starting withthe Home Guard estab-lished to protect the settlers

    from Indian uprisings.Hennan will be dressedin one of his Civil War uni-forms for his presentation,

    Kirchmeier said. He waspreviously involved inmany Civil War reenact-ments and many of theitems used for those areon display in our museumfor everyone to see. I want to invite the publicto come into the museum while visiting the BuffaloRidge Renegades at theSummerfest Rendezvousevent and take a look atall we have on the his-tory of Jackson County.We will be offering freerefreshments after theCivil War presentationson Sunday too.

    Several of the muse-ums period wagons willbe rolled out for every-one to see, including abuggy and a buckboard, which will be on displayright next to the buck-skinners encampments.

    This is a great op-portunity for people torediscover the JacksonCounty Historical Soci-ety Museum and learn what we do here, Kirch-meier said. We do greatthings at the museumin an effort to preserve

    Jackson County History.Many of the displays arenew.

    playground apparatus. TheSummerfest Girl Scout Petshow will have its pet showstage set up more towardthe southwest corner of thepark Saturday.

    Registration for the petshow will start at 9:30 a.m.near the stage, Henningsaid. And the show willstart right at 10 a.m. withthe kids walking or carryingtheir pets across the stagefor everyone to see, includ-ing the judges, who will bemixed within the audience.

    According to Henning,Lakefield Girl Scout Troop353 sponsors the pet show asa community service projectand a way to give back tothe people of Lakefield andthe surrounding area. TheLakefield Girl Scout Cadetshelp organize the pet show

    and also hand out the prizesto the participants.

    They are all pet lovers,Henning said. They have

    been working at the Hu-mane Society in Fairmont

    with lost and straypets, helping peoplethere as well as theirpets. It has been agood learning expe-rience for the Ca-dets.

    There are a num-ber of categoriesfor this years GirlScout Pet Show, in-

    cluding largest and smallestpet, cutest and friendli-est dog, best-dressed dog,most fuzzy kitty, kitty with

    the prettiest eyes, top largedog, top medium dog andtop small dog and a peopleschoice award.

    This is not a pet showabout pedigree, Henningsaid. It is a chance for kidsto show their pet and how well they can handle theirpet for some. We hope tohave a prize for everyone.The Girl Scouts use someof the money from theircookie sales to pay for theprizes. All pets will be ini-tially entered in one of three categories large,medium or small pet.

    Beyond registering theirpet, knowing its breed ormix of breeds and parad-ing or carrying it across thestage and back, pet showparticipants need to an-nounce the name of the petand tell something specialabout their pet or somefun fact about their animal,Henning said.

    Sioux Falls, S.D.-basedgospel music group Rela-tive Harmony will per-form at this years Sum-mer fe s t Communi tyChurch Service startingat 9:30 a.m. on Sunday,June 26.

    The public is invitedto join us in this yearsSummerfest CommunityChurch Service wherePastor Todd Bauman of Worthington will again besharing his message withthose gathered and, priorto his message, the gos-pel music trio of RelativeHarmony will be singing,starting at 9:30 a.m., saidMonica Kuhnau, servicecoordinator.

    Community church service to feature Sioux Fallsgospel group beginning at 9:30 a.m. this Sunday

    The earlier-than-normalstart time for the serviceis due to another commit-ment to perform by Rela-tive Harmony that day and

    will allow the trio additionaltravel time to make theirnext performance.

    Relative Harmony hasbeen traveling the Mid-

    west for nearly five years,singing primarily southerngospel music. The groupincludes Jake and PhyllisVan Den Hul and Phyl-lis cousin, Carol Patch, as

    well as her granddaughter,Taylor Patch, who does thesound mixing for the group.

    Jake and Phyllis havebeen singing not only to-gether, but also with a va-riety of groups since 1966.Both Jake and Phyllis enjoyriding their trike during the

    summer months and Caroland her husband, Ray, likeriding their big Kawasakimotorcycle together.

    Kuhnau said obviously,this group and their interestin motorcycles and ridingfits right in with the themeof this years 2011 Summer-fest celebration, LakefieldGone Hog Wild, whichshould add to the fun of performing here this year.

    At the end of the ser- vice, the Windom AreaChordhustlers will also beperforming as part of theirtraditional day of travelingaround the area, performingbriefly at various churches,Kuhnau said. This shouldmake for a special Sum-merfest Community ChurchService this year with a lot of great music.
