"This community-centered event promises to once again attract a strong showing of car enthusiasts — people who take pride in owning and maintaining special vehicles as well as people who appreciate them,” said Scott Baird, Chamber President. “It’s also a great opportunity for residents and visitors to enjoy the Village’s unique restaurants, boutiques and service businesses."

"Visitors can expect not only to see beautifully-maintained vintage and specialty cars, but also to enjoy a fun night out with friends and family,” said Roger S. Cohen, Chamber Vice President. "Our exhibitors, entertainers and sponsors are planning a great show, so everyone will have a memorable night in Nyack.”

“We’re also proud to support the Wounded Warrior Project,” added Mark Mangan, project organizer. "It’s a great cause that gives back to our family members, friends and neighbors who have put themselves in harm’s way to protect us all.”

Classic Car Night piggy-backs on another community initiative spearheaded by the Chamber — Nyack’s Thursday Farmers’ Market — which will be held earlier in the day (8:00 am to 2:00 pm) in the heart of Nyack’s downtown. When all the fruits, vegetables and other delicacies have been sold, the cars will be cruising onto Main Street to begin the evening’s festivities.
