FESTIVAL ON THE HILL CAR SHOW
CLIFTON FORGE VA - OCTOBER 7, 2023
The Alleghany Cruisers once again had the honor of hosting a car show in conjunction with the 2nd Annual Festival on the Hill presented by Scott Hill Retirement Community. This was a great event and all of the proceeds raised were to be donated to the local volunteer fire and rescue departments. It was a beautiful day, perhaps a little chilly at times, but otherwise very nice. A total of 27 show vehicles were present and there were lots of people in attendance. The folks at Scott Hill Retirement Community did a great job with some awesome door prizes and a great Chinese raffle. The Alleghany Cruisers very own D.J. the Lone Wolf Eugene Windsor kept everyone rocking all day. It is hard to imagine a car event in our area without Eugene spinning the tunes. We really enjoy coming to Scott Hill each fall, as this is one of only two car events held each year in Clifton Forge. It was so great to see so many of our local car enthusiasts supporting our community. Great event.
