HISTORICAL SOCIETY AND VINTAGE CAR CLUB TEAM UP FOR
“THE HISTORY OF THE AUTOMOBILE IN FALLBROOK”
-A Special Event of Cars, Presentations, Photo Displays, Museum Tours and Refreshments-
The Fallbrook Historical Society and the Fallbrook Vintage Car Club will present a special afternoon of “The History of the Automobile in Fallbrook,” on Sunday, August 19, from 2:00-4:00 p.m. at the Museum grounds, located at the corner of Rocky Crest Road and Hill Street. The event will include a display of vintage cars and a narrated slide show of Fallbrook‘s first cars set against the backdrop of historic downtown’s early buildings. The show will also include scenes of Fallbrook’s first gas stations and panoramic views of cars set against Fallbrook’s skyline as well as its rolling hills and farmland.
The Vintage Car Club will also narrate a visual history of its development and purpose, and many of its members will display their cars around the Museum grounds.
Fallbrook’s own Dode Martin, famous Dragmaster creator and drag racer, will share anecdotes with the crowd, will display a custom-built vehicle, and “fire up” a special “hot rod” to thrill spectators with the roar of a racing engine.
After the presentations, tours of the Museum buildings will be available, including the famous Pittinger House, the newly refurbished Ford Room with displays of three restored antique Fords and an entire wall of the Vintage Car Club Posters, the Gem Room, and the Donald Rivers Interpretive Center (known as “The Barn”) with its many agriculture-through-the-years displays. The main Museum itself will also have tours and special displays set up for the day.
The event will conclude with an old-fashioned ice cream social - featuring both homemade apple pie and homemade ice cream – all free to the general public.
Be sure to put the date on your calendar.
