02/06/2005: "Louth's Classic Bike and Car Event"

The 11th Louth Classic Car and Country Show relies on the public's support to be a success, and organiser Trevor Marris has launched a rallying call to get as many people as possible along to the event this Sunday, June 5.
In aid of both the Louth Scanner Appeal and the Lindsey Blind Society, the popular annual show boasts a car run, Lancaster fly past, music, craft displays, charity stalls, beer tent, and many other attractions.
Mr Marris said: "The more people we get the better it will be. Both charities are vital to the town and we should give them as much support as possible."
He added the event was a premier car show in this part of the county.
"And there aren't many such shows you can go to for such a small price," he said.
As ever, the Classic Car Run – featuring such esteemed models as the Rolls Royce, Bentley and Wolseley – will set off from Louth Market Place at 10am.

Around 150 classic vehicles and bikes will then convene at the show in Deighton Close around 11.30am.
Other attractions include a hot dog stall, Riverhead Silver Band, a display from the Louth Search and Rescue Dog Team, Appleby's Ice Cream, and a bouncy castle.
Don't miss the Leader stall – and look out for our own children's mascot Techno Ted who will be meeting his fans on the day.
There is even a chance to win a Morris Minor for £1.
Entry for the show is just £1.50 for adults and 50p for children.

The event is expecting many people, so there will be two clearly posted car parks on the day. So mark your diaries if you live nearby, and make it into a short holiday if you don't! There are sure to be lots of classic bikes in attendance, including Triumphs and Harleys, so it's well worth the trip. With summer approaching, this is the first of what is sure to be a run of exciting bike and car centred events.
