The skies
have cleared and the weather has cooled down a few degrees, and that means it’s
going to be a great weekend to spend some time in downtown Elyria! A couple of annual events have lined up again
this year to provide all the entertainment you need on Sunday, July 28th. Donna’s Diner Classic Car Show starts off
the day and runs from noon until 3:00pm.
If you have a classic car you want to show off or just want to see some
vintage Detroit steel, bring your friends and family downtown on Sunday. Cars will be displayed on the street around
Ely Square, and Donna’s Diner will have hot dogs, a 50/50 raffle, and music by
Johnny Aces and the Wingmen.
At 6:00pm on
Sunday, The Elyria Parks and Recreation Department is proud to bring you
“Rockin’ in the Park,” a FREE CONCERT in The Square featuring Massillon-based
band LA FLAVOUR in the Ely Park Gazebo, performing a medley of favorites from
the 50’s, 60’s, Disco Era and more! Hershey’s Ice Cream will be on site to keep
everyone well-fed and full of energy for the show.
Finally, we
want to say congratulations to the Elyria East 11 and 12 year-old Little League
Softball Allstars. They won two big
games on Thursday to secure a Regional Championship and a chance to play in the
Little League World Series! They have a
few weeks off before heading to Portland, Oregon to play the host-team on
August 8th. Great job,
girls! The entire City of Elyria will be
rooting for you!
PS- There
will be some parking/driving changes downtown on Sunday to accommodate the car
show. Second Street between Court and
West will run as a two-way street on the day of the show to give access to Ely
Square, similar to the setup for the Apple Festival. Have a great weekend!
