Father’s Day Weekend In Iron County

Saturday June 17th: Cruise Fest 5pm-8pm 

We kick off the weekend with a nostalgic cruise downtown Genese St followed by a Blessing of the Cars, then fill the rest of the night with music, dancing, eating, and more fun.  Enjoy a dance performance by Khristin Zykowski and the Zumba Dancers, shake a leg to DJ Adam Stender, Voice of the North playing all your favorite 50's-60's music, refuel with one of the food venders or try other eats, treats, and drinks at one of the local businesses. Come dressed in your best 50's-60's costume - prize for best dressed! 

Sunday June 18th: Car & Tractor Show 12pm-3pm

Calling all vintage vehicle lovers ... the show isn’t just limited to classic cars. Any vintage vehicle can participate - we've had participants from vintage motorcycles, a semi, to various tractors. There are no trophies awarded, but everyone who registers will be entered into a drawing for prizes provided by local businesses.  Fred Hauser, President of IC Classic Farm Machinary, said last year they had 30-40 prizes.

Vehicle registration is $10 and starts at 10am.  Enjoy a day of vintage fun, raffle prizes, 50/50 drawings, 50's-60's music by DJ, dancing, food venders, face painting, a clown and helium balloons for the children.
