ALBION – The 9th annual car show to benefit Supportive Care of Orleans County on Saturday drew a crowd to Bullard Park. The sunny weather was ideal for the car show, which featured 73 vehicles.
There also were four youth football games at the park and many of the parents and players stopped by to check out the cars.

The event usually raises about $3,000 for Supportive Care., formerly known as Hospice of Orleans County
