LCOC Western Region Event Calendar
|
Can’t join for the entire day? Come to the Deer Park Winery & Auto Museum at 11 am for the afternoon festivities.On Saturday April 5 starting at 11:30 a.m. our own Scott Balanda has arranged a stellar wine tasting event and lunch at the beautiful Mystic Hills Vineyard, 79550 Watkins Lane, San Miguel, CA. Mystic Hills is located in the scenic Paso Robles wine producing region of central California. This small family-owned winery offers white and blush wines and is renowned for its red wine varietals and blends. Their wine quality, hospitality and friendliness have been cited in numerous 5 star tasting reviews and LCOC will expect no less.
After the host’s wonderful introduction to the property, tasting will take place outside on the patio overlooking the vineyard. Mystic HIlls has been named Monterey County Winery of the Year and San Luis Obispo County Winery of the Year.
This tasting also will include a pre-arranged box lunch featuring a delicious vegan, deli or gluten free sandwich, side dish choice of broccoli, coleslaw, fruit cup, macaroni, pasta salad, potato salad, quinoa or side green, plus potato chip bag, and a gourmet dessert cookie, water and soft drinks. In a nostalgic throwback to the free tastings of earlier days of California’s nascent wine industry, the entire event including lunch will be just $30 per person paid directly to Scott.
Contact him by March 15 at scott.balanda@gmail.com to reserve your space and lunch selection. We are limited to the first 30 visitors to sign up so you won’t want to delay your reservation. There is ample parking if you choose to arrive in your classic Lincoln; however, all makes, models and years of vehicles are welcome.
The Mystic HIlls outing is planned as a day trip, but should you wish to arrive the night before or spend the weekend in the area, your best bet for reasonable accommodations isin nearby Atascadero.

LCOC is encouraging and inviting you to register your pre-1980 Lincolns and Marks for one of San Diego’s oldest and best car events—this year’s 36th Annual MotorCars on MainStreet, Sunday May 4, 2025 on Coronado Island.
We are shooting for extensive club support so we can pre-stage nearby, enter as a group to proudly wave LCOC’s banner at this show and compete for individual and club awards. Registrants receive a free event T-shirt and raffle tickets good for chances to win numerous prizes. Registration fee for car owners is $50.
The event is entirely free for spectators, and all are welcome to join in on the fun — from vintage cars to state-of-the-art technology, live music, raffles, and more.
If we generate enough out-of-town interest we will book a block of rooms at a local hotel and add more events on the day before the show. If you are planning to attend, please register below, contact Elayne Bendel at epbendel@sbcglobal.net and Marjo Miller at miller.marjo@gmail.com and indicate your interest in a hotel and/or pre-event (Saturday) activities.

MotorCars on MainStreet isn’t just a car show—it’s an experience—an extraordinary celebration of classic and custom automobiles. In 2024 it featured over 400 pre-73 restored classic cars and trucks, live music, commemorative T-shirts, a raffle, and an award ceremony. The streets were filled with a variety of classic, custom, electric, and exotic vehicles, alongside countless car enthusiasts eager to discuss their passion.
This year, MainStreet anticipates an even bigger and better event. This year’s show will feature 1980 and older restored antiques, classics, rods, and custom cars, trucks, and Lowriders for the first time showcasing the craftsmanship, passion, and history that make these vehicles so iconic. The show will run Sunday, May 4, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Isabella and Orange Avenues.
