This is just a great community- and family-oriented event, and we encourage everyone to come and check it out," said Dean Hershey, describing the LCBC Motorsports Show. "There are things for everybody to experience and fun for everyone."

The show will be held at LCBC Manheim, 2392 Mount Joy Road, on Saturday, June 13, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Admission is free for both guests and vehicle entrants.

The LCBC Motorsports Show will feature antique cars, classics, muscle cars, tuners, motorcycles, street rods, lifted trucks and scale model cars from across the region. This year's featured theme celebrates pickup trucks, with a dedicated showcase area highlighting everything from restored antiques to custom off-road builds.

"We are one of the largest free car shows on the East Coast," said Hershey, show organizer. "We average around 12,000 people here, and around 1,500 to 1,800 vehicles."

This is the 25th anniversary of the motorsports show, which began through the men's ministry at LCBC.

"Our first show was just a couple of grills set up and probably 10 to 20 vehicles," Hershey recalled. "It was just a fun idea we had, and it's grown from that."

He noted that people come from as far away as Florida to participate in the show, adding, "We've had people come from 10 different states."

The show is about more than vehicles, he said. It's about creating a place where people can come together, enjoy the day with family and friends and experience community in a real and welcoming way.

Food vendors will be on-site, including Dog House Grill, Stacey's Orangeade, Sittin' Pickin' Chickin', Bricker's French Fries, Scoops Ice Cream & Grille, Noel's Cafe, Funcky Candy X-Press, Kreider Farms and the LCBC cafe.

Families can also enjoy free activities throughout the day, such as face painting, inflatables, mobile mini golf and RC Monster Trucks.

One of the day's highlights will be a special appearance by the Life Lion helicopter team, Hershey said, noting that people will have the opportunity to watch the helicopter land on-site, meet the crew and experience a live takeoff later in the event.

Trophies will be awarded in a variety of categories for motorcycles, model cars and other vehicles.

"Our trophies are completely unique to all car shows," Hershey said. "They are created by one of the guys on our show team in the design of an old gas pump with the show's specific theme vehicle on it. People that are into car shows, they love our trophies."

All entrants will also be eligible to win a grand prize NAPA one-of-a-kind toolbox, which will be awarded by random drawing.

The general public will have the opportunity to win grand prizes of a Hershey Antique Auto Museum package and a trailer from Keystone Trailers. People can scan a QR code on-site and choose to enter for either prize or for both.

Hershey invites everyone out for the motorsports show.

"You're going to see some of the coolest vehicles around," he said. "And if you're not as into cars, we have tons of stuff for the whole family to enjoy. Originally, this was strictly focused on car show people, but through the years, we've grown it and cultivated it to be a family event with lots of cool things for kids to experience."

In the event of inclement weather, the show will be held on Saturday, June 20, at the same time and location.
