MERRIMACK – The seventh annual Northeast Exotic Car Show will be held Saturday, Aug. 21, at the Anheuser-Busch Brewery.

Gates open to the public at 10 a.m. Trophies will be awarded at 2 p.m. The car show is open to any and all sports/sporting cars of any era: modern, classic or vintage.

The website for the car show, containing additional details and updates, is www.northeastexotic.com.

This year’s show is an official club event for many regional car clubs, including: Ferrari, Viper, Lamborghini, Porsche, Lotus, BMW and TVR.

The Northeast Exotic Car Show is a nonprofit fund-raising event for the New Hampshire Make-a-Wish Foundation. Over the years, this locally supported annual event has been able to raise more than $25,000 for the Make-a-Wish Foundation of New Hampshire.

A donation of $20 is requested from all show cars during registration. This donation will be made to New Hampshire Make-a-Wish, who will also have a booth at the show if you should choose to make a larger donation. Donations from the public are encouraged, but not mandatory.

This year, the show will be a judged event with trophies awarded to first- and second-place winners in each class.

In addition, the event organizers are extremely pleased to have Nicole Houde, Miss New Hampshire USA 2010, attend the event. She will be available all day for photo ops, and to present the trophies.
