“It’s such a fun event with something for everyone. There’s always a great turnout of cars for this end-of-season show. We have a great selection of vendors joining us this year and many amazing raffle items donated by our supporters. “Plus we’ll have lots of fun for the kids too, including our Halloween Barktacular games like fishing for eyeballs and a giant slingshot. The farm has some adorable goats who always put on a good show and live music will be provided by Spare Parts.” Second Chance CEO and founder Sheryl Blancato
