opportunities for car lovers, spouses, and
family. All events are open to the public.
Friday, features the repeat of last
year’s popular day drive (benefiting
the Literacy Council of Highlands,
the 2015 charity). This year’s One Lap
of the Mountains will provide a full
day of driving in the beautiful NC
mountains. The day will include a light
breakfast at Creekside, a lunch stop
midway, and return to Highlands late
afternoon. That evening is the special
Welcome Party, Motoring to Motown,
with meal featuring Bar-B-Que, hosted
by the Literacy Council of Highlands,
featuring City Street Band.
Saturday, features the aforementioned
Classic Car Show. Cars to view and
activities for old and young alike, will
fill the day. On Saturday evening, we
will have an evening to relax with
the Saturday Night Social – Buffet
and the Big Screen (party and dinner
at SweeTreats restaurant, followed
by a movie at an automotive venue).
The ever popular Sunday Road Rally,
proven a “must” in years past, will
give the opportunity to drive some
great roads (at a moderate pace), have
a great brunch and return to The Ugly
Dog Pub, Highlands, for some “war
stories” and awards.
This year’s festival will feature,
in addition to many outstanding
cars, some very rare and special
motor vehicles, including vintage
motorcycles. Already, committed are
two of the fastest production vehicles
of the early 50’s, just to name a few.
Registrants from as far away as
Mississippi and Maryland, will be
present with their cars, and this is an
opportunity to see cars that generally
only appear in magazines.
