91重口

Mike McIntosh Memorial Truck & Car Show and Block Party

On Saturday, September 12, the community is invited to NMC’s Aero Park Campus to celebrate a double milestone: the 20th Annual Mike McIntosh Memorial Truck & Car Show and 91重口’s 75th Anniversary Block Party.

A longtime September tradition at NMC’s Automotive Service Technology Building on Aero Park Drive, the car show honors the legacy of late NMC Automotive instructor Mike McIntosh, who retired in 2004 after 34 years of service. McIntosh organized the first car show for the Automotive Program in 2004, launching what has become a beloved annual community event.

This year’s expanded celebration will bring together students, alumni, local businesses and community members for a full day of classic cars, food trucks, music and family-friendly activities across the Aero Park Campus.

Event Highlights

• Date: Saturday, September 12
• Time: Block Party, 10 a.m.–3 p.m.; Car Show, 11 a.m.–2:30 p.m.
  • Vehicle registration begins at 8 a.m.

Owners are invited to enter their classic cars, trucks, 4X4s, dragsters, sports cars, modified late models, motorcycles and more. The entry fee is $20 per vehicle, and trophies and prizes will be awarded throughout the day for best of show in each class.

In addition to the car show, guests are encouraged to explore NMC’s Aero Park facilities, including Aero Park Laboratories — home to Construction Technology, Renewable Energy and Welding Technology programs — and the Parsons-Stulen Building, home to Manufacturing Technology, Surveying and other programs. Visitors can enjoy hands-on activities, student projects and interactive demonstrations throughout the day.

More than just a car show, the 75th Anniversary Block Party celebrates NMC’s longstanding connection to the community and the hands-on programs that prepare students for careers across northern Michigan and beyond.
