About
Founded in 2011 under the leadership of Jerry Bundy, the KIDSAFE CT Car Show has brought together car enthusiasts, local families, and community partners alike to enjoy an exciting day filled with amazing cars, tunes, and family fun—all for an important cause! With Jerry’s passing in 2024, we are proud to continue this event in memory of the amazing support Jerry provided to KIDSAFE and the greater Vernon community.
Now one of the region’s premier annual car shows, the event showcases nearly 300 vehicles from all eras, including new and classic cars, trucks, tractors, and more. The event also features activities for kids, raffles, great food and refreshments from local vendors, and a special awards ceremony for each car class and category. Admission is free for spectators.
