20th Annual
Great Southern Antique Car Rally
Cairo, GA
May 10-11, 2008
  

The citizens of Cairo, GA. have again outdone themselves in putting on one of the premier annual car events in this area. This year’s event was a special one for some of our club members - Wayne and Rosa Ann Hadden, Bobby and Nell Hollingsworth and Randolph and Janie Brock were recognized for attending all 20 events! That’s quite an accomplishment.

     As usual, we were all feted with a great barbeque dinner prior to a gas light parade that wound through downtown Cairo. It was estimated that close to 200 cars participated although only 135 cars were actually registered. The TRAACA contingent was again the largest club participating (21 registered vehicles with 2 no-shows.).

     Saturday’s poker run and tour was not as long when compared to some past events, however, the participants received a real treat with a tour of Wayne and Rosa Ann’s Antique Auto and Fire Fighter museum.

     The show in the park was also a well attended finale to a great weekend. Here’s hoping for another 20 (or more) years of this great event.
