Benefitting the Orinda Association’s Seniors Around Town Ride Program and other local charities.
In 2005 Orinda residents Chip Herman and John Vanek, backed by Orinda Motors, partnered to start the Orinda Classic Car Show to bring together the local classic car community and to raise money for local charities including The Orinda Association’s Seniors Around Town (SAT) transportation program, the Educational Foundation of Orinda and the Orinda Historical Society. Over the past 16 years, substantial funds have been raised for local charities.

“This year the 18th Orinda Classic Car Show will take place on Saturday, September 10th – from 10 a.m. until 2 pm. We are planning a special exhibit of vintage pick-up trucks (stock and custom or resto-mod), so please enter your trucks. Plus, we’ll have all other vehicles – including exotic, electric vehicles too!

Most of you are aware the car show supports the worthy Orinda Association charity program, “Orinda Seniors Around Town,” which provides critical services for Senior Citizens to make their lives better. Your past and ongoing support is helping make this happen.
The Show will again raise needed funds for Seniors Around Town (SAT) and other local charities, who are working hard to support both area Seniors and the broader community. Over the years, our exhibitors and sponsors have thankfully supported these excellent causes. SAT has provided over 1,000 free rides to Orinda Seniors in both 2020 and 2021. |
