The live music will consist of performances by local blues artist Jamie Heath at 10:30 am and popular country-rock act Switchgear at 1:30 pm.
Gates open at 6:30 am with vehicle registration between 7 am and 11 am. The cost to register is $10 per vehicle, and the show will end with trophy presentations by 4 pm.
To kick off the event in style, Kinsmen Cornwall is adding a drive-in theatre the Saturday night before the show.
Show & Shine and the special movie viewing are free to attend, but donations to Big Brothers Big Sisters are welcomed.
“It gives us a chance to engage the community and the opportunity to support Big Brothers Big Sisters,” said Smellie.
