Covenant Life Church car show planned for Saturday

After being postponed last weekend because of rain, the eighth-annual “Run for the Son” car show will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday (Oct. 17) in the parking lots at Covenant Life Church in Norris.

Visitors can expect to see vintage, classic, and future classic vehicles in front of and on both sides of the church.

Exhibitors may enter their vehicles for the event, with a $20 donation requested for each entry.

There is a new Toddler Class for the exhibits this year, geared toward small children’s battery-operated ride-on cars.

“Toddler entries will have their own space in the grass area, safely separated from the hot rods,” the church posted on Facebook. “Bring the whole family to enjoy the cars, free lunch, and inflatables.”

Overall, more than 100 vehicles are expected to be displayed during the show, which will be set up around the big church building along Andersonville Highway just east of Norris Freeway.

Free lunch will be provided at the show, and admission to the event is free for spectators.
