Saturday, September 14, 2019 is the date for our 7th Annual Grace Community Car Show to benefit local children and their families. A great car, truck and motorcycle show, great food and ice cream, goody bags, drawing for prizes, live auction, children's tent, parade, games, and fun. There is something for everyone.
Welcome to the Grace Community Car Show website! We appreciate your visit. We encourage you check out each of the pages. They are full of helpful information from the history to upcoming details.
Why a car show? Why not? Pastor John's dad, John Bayer, Sr. (picture 1), had a body shop, which Pastor John discovered in 1956 at the age of 3. Pastor John looked for every opportunity to play in the body shop near Smithsburg, MD. Saturdays were the best days to spend a lot of time with his dad.
Pastor John's very first car came at an early age. It was a pedal driven car. See picture 2. Behind him is a 1955 Chevy that his dad had painted for a customer. Needless to say that was the beginning of Pastor John's love for cars. He had a lot of fun with that car during those early years riding it, pretending to work on it right beside his dad who was working on another customer's vehicle. Dad and son were inseparable.
Enjoy looking through this website. I encourage you to become involved in helping with this annual event, showing a vehicle, or becoming a vendor.
