Along with the car show, a picnic took place in a pavilion near the Boat Launch featuring a barbeque, a bake sale, a Chinese Auction, 50/50 raffle, and a live DJ and announcer – Bill Lemon, a retired police officer from Donora.
Kathy Mappas, Library Board Member President, stated that they held the special event to raise money due to budget cuts. “Library Board Member, Glenda Mavrakis suggested that we have a car show, and I think it was a great idea,” said Mappas. “Everybody is out here having a great time.”
