Mills Mansion Car Show
Located in Staatsburgh, N.Y. on the scenic grounds of the Mills Mansion
Just off of Route 9 (Follow Signs)
Approximately 15 miles south of the Kingston/Rhinecliff Bridge
or 8 miles north of the Mid Hudson Bridge in Poughkeepsie, N.Y.
This is a low key non-judged event. There is no entrance fee.
Car Clubs are encouraged to park together.
Some nice older restored classics, street rods and some Corvettes too.
It's a good time!
There is no link that I could find for this event. However, if you Google Mills Mansion and click on Events for October, there is a good description of this event.

(Lets hope next weekends weather is as beautiful as this weekends! Mills Mansion is a good place for a car show anytime. Throw in the changing colors of the leaves & hopefully some more good weather and it'll be a real nice time. Hope to see some C3VR members there.)

Lifetime MemberHey Kevin, If the weather is good I'll go, sounds nice. I've been to that Mansion awile ago. My wife & I will get there about 11. Do you want to meet up someplace on the way. I will come across the Mid-Hudson Bridge. unless it's better to cross over on I84 and come north on Rt.9 from there?
Will your wife be coming? Lets hope for good weather.

Dave,
That sounds great!
Coming over the Mid Hudson Bridge will probably be your best bet. However, getting on to Route 9 Northbound is tricky!
Upon crossing the bridge stay in the right lane. That puts you on Route 9 Southbound for about 30 yards. At that point stay LEFT and swing around on a hair pin ramp to your LEFT. That'll put you on Route 9 Northbound.
It can be a bit confusing but the signs are there to be followed as well.
I'll meet up with you about one mile north of the Mid Hudson Bridge in the Mobil Gas Station parking lot. It'll be on the right side of Route 9 just past AppleBee's Restaraunt.
This'll be a good time!
We'll talk duting the week.
Kevin
Hey DaveM,
The weather says it'll be sunny with a high of 58 degrees. A bit chilly but the Corvettes should run great in those cool temps.
My wife won't be able to attend. Sundays have evolved in to homework day for both kids & they sure do get alot of it!!! She will have to stay at home to keep them fucused.
Hopefully you, your wife and others will be able to attend.
I'll give you a call tomorrow.
Kevin
Sounds good. I have some questions, talk to you tomorrow.

Just a last gasp for anyone who may have missed this.
The foliage is just about at its peak with plenty of sun and temps around 60 degrees in the forecast.
DaveM, his wife and I will be getting some breakfast on Route 9 in Hyde Park, N.Y. around 10:00 am. We'll be at Pete's Famous Diner.
The show was great, had a good time, tons of cool cars, great 2 hour drive each way, great company, couldn't ask for a better day.
Here are pictures from the show.
KDADDY showed us the way there, man there were hot rods & classics everywhere. One of the best shows I've ever been to, and it was free!
Thanks Kevin,
