Charity Carfest Set To Return To Downtown Glenview

GLENVIEW, IL — Car lovers can rejoice as Glenview Luxury Imports Charity Carfest is returning to downtown Glenview next month. The event, scheduled for May 18, will feature more than 80 exotic cars.

The free event will be "bigger and better" than ever, Friends of Downtown Glenview tells Patch. It will include expanded children's activities and "a car floating in a pool." There will also be live music from Chicago's "hottest horn band," Brass From The Past, food and drink from Glenview restaurants, and a raffle with thousands of dollars in prizes.

"Whether you’re into muscle cars, sports cars or novelty vehicles, this spectacular free event is a great way to enjoy an afternoon in Downtown Glenview," Friends of Downtown Glenview says.

For the fourth year, the event benefits The 100 Club of Illinois, which provides much-needed aid to families of fallen first responders

GLI Charity Carfest will run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Church Street and Colonial Court parking lot. Find out more at the event's website.
