The event showcases hundreds of classic cars along the main streen of downtown Hastings and features food vendors, music, and activities for all ages.

Branded merchandise was created to commemorate the event and sold to raise funds for future programming. 7850 Holiday Lighting of Downtown In coordination with downtown building owners, the organization oversaw the planning and installation of extensive holiday lighting throughout the historic district. This included rooftop lighting across multiple buildings, illuminated snowflake decorations on lamp posts, and tree lighting in the city park. The display was launched during our Holiday Hoopla celebration on Small Business Saturday and remained installed throughout the winter season, creating a festive and welcoming environment for residents and visitors. The program supports local economic vitality, encourages tourism, and contributes to the beautification of Hastings historic downtown. 16450 Ice Sculptures In January, the organization hosts a winter attraction featuring custom-designed ice sculptures created by a professional local sculptor. Four large, photo-friendly sculptures are strategically placed throughout the downtown area to draw foot traffic and encourage community interaction during the winter season. This event supports local tourism, enhances visibility for nearby businesses, and contributes to a vibrant downtown atmosphere during the colder months. 4429 28729 Tatia Nelson President 8.00 0 Jen Fox Vice President 3.00 0 Wendi Shilts-Johnson Treasurer 3.00 0 Amy Fox Secretary 2.00 0 false false false false false 0 false false 0 0 0 false 0 0 false MN Wendi Shilts-Johnson 205 2nd St E Hastings MN 55033 6518299670 false false false false false false false false false false false NONE 0 NONE 0 true X 0 27484 59081 47702 64737 61879 260883 27484 59081 47702 64737 61879 260883 260883 260883 1.00000 1.00000 X Part I, Line 16 Supplies $1657, Maintaining Non-Profit Status $771, Insurance $598, Chamber Dues $295, Car Show Plaques $2654 Part I, Line 8 Security Deposits not refunded due to not meeting contract requirements Part II, Line 24 Purchased tables for Car Show Food Court $302, purchased Grinch Costume for Holiday Hoopla Event $148
