New festival tuned up for first ride

A week after classic tractors dotted the Valmy Thresheree grounds, other rides from yesteryear will take their turn beginning on Thursday.

 

The Vintage Revival Weekend is in its first year in Door County. Organizers Chad and Alexandra Walker hosted similar events in other Wisconsin towns like Gleason and Antigo before setting up in Valmy. Vintage cars and campers will be displayed, and six live bands, Hot Rod Walt and the Psycho DeVilles and Gina Marie and the Golden Bucks, will provide the soundtrack.

 

Chad Walker was drawn to the Valmy Thresheree grounds because of its pull track, which is the perfect setting for bumper and mini bike races. He also wanted to give the vintage car owner community another reason to visit Door County, many of whom he says will see the area's beauty for the first time when they go on their Friday afternoon car cruise.

 

The Vintage Revival Weekend runs Thursday evening through Saturday.
