Wynn Hauenstein expects a huge turnout for the car show on Saturday...if the weather cooperates.
He has been working hard the past several months passing out information to car and truck owners to encourage them to bring their vehicles. He has lined up many sponsors. His last task is convincing the weatherman to change the prediction because rain is a spoiler.
If the “liquid precipitation” holds off, as many as 250 cars and trucks could show up. He has arranged parking space for the show cars and the spectators all along Main Street.
