Elgin History Museum

MOVED TO SUNDAY, JULY 13, 2025 FROM 9AM – 3:30PM

Friday, 7/11 at 10am, the decision was made to move the Classic Car Show to the rain date of Sunday, July 13. There is extensive rain in the forecast today, and the grounds will be better suited to the show when they are dry on Sunday. All the other details are the same. See you Sunday!
