24th Annual Heritage Days Car Show
Sponsored by North Shore Classics
Submitted by: Ruth Rabold MSRA #20826
If you attended the MSRA Fall Campout up north in Two
Harbors in 2012 and 2013, you will know that the North
Shore has lots to offer with regard to small-town hospitality
and the beauty of Lake Superior and the surrounding area.
Two Harbors is the place to be the second weekend in July
for its Heritage Days celebration. The dates for this event
are Thursday through Sunday, July 8th-11th.
The North Shore Classics Car Club will be sponsoring the
24th Annual Car Show this year and it is a great opportunity
to make a trip back up north with your classic cars and enjoy
an activity filled weekend in Two Harbors.
The weekend’s activities start on Thursday evening with
a kiddie parade, classic car cruise and band concert in the
park with music provided by the Two Harbors City Band,
the oldest City Band in the State of Minnesota. Friday’s
activities include an arts and crafts fair & Civil War Living
History on the waterfront, the traditional Lutefisk Toss and
an evening street dance on “the main drag”. Saturday, the
craft fair continues, a pancake breakfast is cooked up by the
fire department and there’s live music, the car show and the
parade, which is routed right past the car show site. Sunday
features pancake breakfasts at the airport and the fire hall
and more crafts and music. There are also church services
in the park, both morning and evening. The full schedule of
events can be viewed at: http://thheritagedays.com
The car show is located at Danny’s Auto Shop, 625
3rd Avenue (the corner of 7th Street & 3rd Avenue in Two
Harbors. Registration begins at 8am (be there by 11 to be
eligible for the trophies) which will be awarded for the top
MSRA Schedule of Events
20 cars plus People’s Choice & Mayor’s Choice awards.
Food will be available on site and the parade goes right by!
Trophies and door prizes will be awarded at 3pm.
This is an extremely popular event in Two Harbors and
lodging fills quickly so you will want to reserve early if you are
planning on making a weekend of it.
Lodging options can be found at www.twoharborschamber.
com.
Additional attractions are the Two Harbors waterfront with
views of Lake Superior & the ore shipping facility in Agate
Bay. You may even have the opportunity to view 1,000 foot
ships load iron ore and maneuver their way in and out of the
harbor while you’re there. There are 4 museums within a
short walk, including a floating tugboat and the Two Harbors
Lighthouse B & B.
Enjoy golfing at the 18 hole Lakeview National Golf
Course which has some of the most spectacular vistas in
the state.
There are FIFTEEN STATE PARKS within a 100 mile
radius of Two Harbors. FIVE of these are located within
55 miles along the North Shore, which has also been
designated as a National Scenic Byway. You may want to
take this opportunity to spend some additional time in the
area experiencing all that Minnesota’s Arrowhead Region
has to offer. They all feature spectacular scenery, each with
their own special attributes. Take it from those of us who live
here, it’s definitely worth the trip!
