Anyone from here attending Das Awkscht Fescht in Macungie, PA this weekend? I'll be attending as a spectator. There are usually some AMCs, just curious if any members will be there. Josh

I've never attended that one but I did participate in the Wheels of Time Rod & Custom jamborees for over 10 years held in the same park. August in Macungie can be brutal and I think this weekend will be one of those. Have fun.

Your exactly right about the heat, I've gone to this show 6-7 times, one time the temps were low 80's, but normally it is oppressive. I really like the park as a venue and the show never fails to impress, lots of really neat and diverse cars. This years featured car is the Chrysler 300. Should be a good one!

SirDigger:
You are sort of correct - it is Pennsylvania Dutch for "The August Festival" - happens the first weekend of every August now for over 50 years. Huge car show and flea market Fri - Sun. Sunday is club day - that is when over 25 clubs participate with members cars. For us, the clubs of main interest would be: Metropolitan Club Nash / AMC Clubs Kaiser - Jeep Club My family usually attends, but we are getting ready to move my daughter to NC this week () and won't make it this year. It's a good event of over 1000 cars parked by make on Sunday - a great event. Oh, and for the ladies there is a craft fair!

I didn't realize Sunday was club day as I've only ever gone on Saturday. Maybe I'll have to switch my plans and go Sunday instead of tomorrow. It's a shame you won't be attending. Good luck with your daughters move. I'm hoping to get to your end of season gathering this year, if you have it.

I've gone many times but haven't brought a car in a while. It is the biggest car show in the Allentown area by far. Every day is different which makes it fun.
