Editor’s Note: The following was submitted by MassHort at Elm Bank.
Do you love classic cars? Does the sight of a beautifully restored Mustang, Triumph, Corvette or a car with tail fins make you smile? Then be prepared to do a lot of smiling on Sunday, June 24, because that’s the date of the 10th annual Elm Bank Antique Auto Show.
Open from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m., the show is expected to draw more than 600 classic cars, from hot rods and pace cars to lovingly cared-for vehicles from the 1950s and ’60s, when the automobile was more than just something to get you from point A to point B. There will be a Top 50 competition plus special trophies in many categories.
For this 10th show, organizer Charlie Harris has added television and movie cars. There will be a screen-accurate “Back to the Future” DeLorean, complete with a working Flux Capacitor. Also on display will be a “Smokey and the Bandit” 1978 Trans Am, a “M*A*S*H” unit jeep and a “General Lee” from “The Dukes of Hazzard,” among other entries.
The day will be filled with more than just cars. There will be live music (oldies, naturally), food and drink, and a swap meet area where you can browse for memorabilia.
It’s also an opportunity to explore the beautiful gardens at Elm Bank. The Massachusetts Horticultural Society’s gardens are at their peak at the end of June, and your family can take in the stunning Bressingham Garden or the child-friendly Weezie’s Garden. There’s a trial garden with a sneak peek of next year’s flowers for the home garden, and the brand-new Chef’s Garden where you can see vegetables in an entirely new light.
In an era when all cars seem to look more and more alike, it’s an opportunity to renew your love affair with the automobile — or to introduce a new generation to the thrill of a GTO, a Sting Ray or even an Edsel. Admission, which includes all events, is $5; children under 12 are free.
If you’re an owner of a classic car and you’d like to display it at the Elm Bank Antique Auto Show, visit the show’s website, http://www.elmbankautoshow.com. The Classic Car Show is sponsored by Corcoran & Havlin Insurance Company and by Herb Chambers Toyota, Scion and Hyundai.
Elm Bank, the home of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, is at 900 Washington St. (Route 16) on the Natick/Wellesley line. Cross the bridge and follow signs to parking for the show.

Natick, MA (PRWEB) June 21, 2012
Premiere Adirondack Chairs, a leading online patio furniture retailer, is promoting its collection of Lloyd Flanders Wicker Patio Furniture as a brand committed to superior durability in harsh weather.Knowing that the Michigan-based manufacturer creates all-weather wicker outdoor furniture products that resist effects of moisture, heat and sun, Premiere Adirondack Chairs CEO Doug Hopeman greatly increased the company’s Lloyd Flanders inventory this spring in order to give customers longer –lasting patio furniture options.
“We’ve had great success offering the Lloyd Flanders brand in the past, because customers appreciate their approach to constructing wicker furniture,” Hopeman said.

Not only are Lloyd Flanders wicker chairs, tables, sofas, and loveseats sturdy: They also offer shoppers huge color variety. Many seating options come with thick patio cushions, which customers can order in their favorite among a large swatch of patterns and colors. Throw pillows in assorted fabrics can also be added to any set.
In addition to standard patio lounge and dining sets, Lloyd Flanders offers luxury pieces, like wicker chaise lounges and large ottomans, and accent pieces, like patio end tables. Collections include Grand Traverse, Contempo, Reflections, and Hamptons, to name just a few.
The Lloyd Flanders expansion is part of a site-wide strategy to increase patio furniture options for shoppers, for the most complete shopping experience on the Internet. The company continues to focus on its signature product, Adirondack furniture, while also offering wood, metal, resin, wrought iron and wicker patio furniture.
