PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT, not a club event.

The Pumpkin Run Nationals, the largest car show in southwest Ohio, has drawn as many as 3,000 vintage automobiles from the local area, the region, and from as far away as Florida and Canada. Since 1975, this car and truck show is one of the most popular events in Clermont County. All cars and trucks are 1970’s or older. Activities going on throughout the day include live music, games and much more. Exhibitors come from all over the US to show their cars and trucks.

Susan Milinkovich, ”It is a great car show if you like old cars and trucks. They fill the entire Clermont County fairgrounds with cars, there is a swap meet with lots of interesting old things (car parts and other things) for sale that makes for some fun closeup and abstract photography, Halloween decorations on some of the cars, old gas pumps and signs.

Show cars start coming through the gate usually before 8:00 and people often sit in lawn chairs and watch the cars come in before walking around. Usually have around 3000 cars and trucks Cars/trucks are all 1974 or earlier

Photography options are the cars, swap meet with car parts, antiques, all kinds of interesting things to photography, Halloween decorated cars and trucks There is a spot that has old gas pumps, car and gas signs, old glass oil bottles, etc. that is fun to photograph.”

Gate fee is $10

Parking is in a variety of places right around the fairgrounds – church lots, private yards, fairgrounds parking – I think parking fees are around $10 – getting there early in the morning gets you parking closest to the fairgrounds and beats the traffic getting to the fairgrounds.
