The Gateway Canyons Resort is the home to one of the finest collections of American automobiles in existence today.
With over 40 vehicles in the privately owned Hendricks Collection, the Gateway Colorado Canyons Automobile Museum tells a story — the story of how the automobile has impacted our society.
Gateway Canyons is using the setting of the Automobile Museum to host the 5th annual Classic Auto Festival on Saturday, May 8, 2010.
Redlands Rotarians John Feliciano and Rick Rodd bring their interest and expertise in automobiles and car shows to assist Gateway Canyons Resort and the Mesa County Partners Program to organize this top of the line automotive festival as a fundraiser for the partners program.
The entrance fee includes entry into the car show, two museum tours, two festival entries, dash plaque and a donation to the partners program.
Vendor and food booths will be at the festival. There will be drawings for door prizes and gift baskets. So plan ahead and put Saturday, May 8, 2010 on your calendar to attend the 2010 Gateway Canyons Classic Auto Fest.
The Gateway Canyons Auto Fest is a benefit for the partners program. The proceeds will stay in western Colorado to provide services to youth who face challenges in their lives.
The partners program is devoted to helping young people overcome issues such as criminal behavior, substance abuse and unemployment. The goal is to provide opportunities for youth to have positive role models in their lives and to learn from their mistakes.
