Berwyn Rt66 Car Show

The Biggest and Best Car Show on Route 66
September 10, 2011

It was a great show! Over 400 fabulous cars, thousands of spectators, a huge split the pot, great food and beautiful weather ... all on Route 66.

The day started in a fog, at least for the early arrivals. By 8:30 it was clearing up and the sun came out and stayed there all day. There was Pizza from the new Paisan's Restaurant, Hot Dogs, Funnel Cakes, Fresh Lemonade and lots more. The split the pot this year was over a grand, one of the largest pots we've had. The crowd was huge, with estimates of 15,000 and more. And then there are the cars, 400 of the best in the midwest. There was something for everyone and more.

Check back for a gallery of the 2011 show, we are assenbling the images now. If you have one or more that you'd like to share, email it to info@BerwynRt66.com. Be sure to give us your name so we can give you credit for the picture. Please send jpg files that are 2 megs or less.

This show is produced by a small group of volunteers, with a lot of help from the Berwyn Development Corporation, the City of Berwyn and the Police, Fire, and Public Works Departments. It is this partnership that enable you to have this great show. A special thanks to all involved.

There is a car show scheduled for May 12th, that is being produced by the Stickney Youth Footbal League. It will be held in the old Anderson Ford lot on Ogden Avenue. We are not involved in the set up or organization of this show, but you may find it a great way to knock the winter dust off your car and support local youth football.
