The following are encapsulations of some of today's top local stories. Car show has new attractions Carlisle Fairgrounds' annual summer car show began Friday with a new name, a few new features and a little bit of rain. Formerly Summer Carlisle, the show's new name is Summer Carlisle Cool Car Cruise-in. The name change is a result of the addition of the United Car Club's display of Camaros, as well as some of Mid-Atlantic Street Rod Association's cars, says spokesman Bob Hall.
Some vendors disagree.
The new features were attracting some attention. The Camaro display includes the official pace car of the 1996 Brickyard 500 auto race, as well as the Indy 500 pace car. In a tent nearby, visitors could also play a SEGA racing game and listen to a history of the Camaros. Another display was the unique Posies Extremeliner, owned by Ken Fenical of Posies Inc. of Hummelstown. While the majority of vendor merchandise is car-related, a variety of items are available, including old traffic signals, early Coke machines and jewelry cleaner.
