The show will be held on the West High Street area from Mulberry to Sandusky Street, including Mulberry and Mechanic Streets, and Vine Street from Mulberry to Gay Street, allowing for many more vehicles to be displayed.   Cars should enter from Sandusky Street (SR 13) onto High Street and park as directed by the car show staff.
