To raise money to help domestic violence survivors, the East Texas Crisis Center will host its 2022 East Texas Auto and Cycle Show, an event that is returning following COVID-19-related cancellations, this weekend.
The East Texas Auto & Cycle Show, which is celebrating its 32nd year, will be held Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Green Acres Baptist Church parking lot in Tyler.
The show was canceled last year due to COVID-19 concerns. In the past, it was held at Harvey Convention Center.
ETCC's annual show features vehicles of all makes from different decades.
Vehicle registration and set up will begin at 8 a.m. Awards for the vehicles will be given at 2:30 p.m.
This year's show includes a raffle for a Viper Red 1967 Mustang. People can purchase a $10 ticket that will be donated to the crisis center at autoandcycleshow.com/raffle-tickets.php.
The car has had only one owner and been in Tyler its entire life. The vehicle has a black interior, 289 motor, radio and air conditioning.
ETCC serves the counties of Smith, Henderson, Van Zandt, Wood and Rains. The center is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All services provided by the center are free and confidential.
