The Cambridge City Volunteer Fire Department’s annual car show and fundraiser was held Sunday, July 6, at Creitz Park.
The event brought more than 130 exhibitors and their families to Cambridge City, bringing business to local shops and restaurants. Some participants came from as far as two hours away.
Steve Railsback of New Paris, Ohio, won the Bill Rihm Memorial Award. Railsback earned the top prize for his 1970 Dodge Charger. The award is named after Bill Rihm, who died in June at age 98 and had been a fire department volunteer for about 60 years.
