On Oct. 16, the second annual All-German Car Show will be held at Harbor Hills Country Club. All proceeds will go to Dollars for Scholars, a local charity that supports high school graduates to continue their education. The show is sponsored by the M. Benz Club of The Villages, Porsche Owners Club of The Villages and The Villages BMW Z Club.
Last year, 100 cars were showcased, and there were eight vendors present. This year, Michael Roth, the chairman of the event, expects to see about 150 cars and 12 vendors. The Villages German Band will also be performing.
“(The band) will provide an Oktoberfest atmosphere,” Roth explained.
Since all proceeds go towards Dollars for Scholars, guests are able to pick the amount they wish to donate for their tickets. Lunch will also be available for purchase, and guests are encouraged to bring their own folding chairs. Guests may win some door prizes as well. The All-German Car Show starts at 10 a.m..
For anyone who wishes to enter their German-made car, the registration fee is $25 per vehicle. The fee goes up to $35 after Sept. 15. Participants can register at https://tinyurl.com/agcs2021. If anyone has any issues registering or has any other questions, Michael Roth can be reached at Mike@MBenzClub.com or 513-646-6523.
