It’s Not Just a Car Show—It’s a Reason to Connect
This is a summer tradition that’s about more than chrome and trophies. It’s about family, memories and making time for what matters.
In today’s world, it’s easy to get caught up in schedules and distractions. We all say the same thing: “Let’s get together soon.” But sometimes, soon turns into months or even years.
If there’s one thing we’ve heard time and time again from families, it’s this: “I wish we would’ve made more time for the little things.”
That’s why moments like these—a summer afternoon filled with familiar music, the smell of popcorn, the shine of a classic car—matter more than ever. They give us a reason to slow down. To sit side-by-side. To talk, laugh and remember.
And that’s exactly what’s waiting for you at Benedictine Living Community–Regina this August.
Join Us for Regina’s Classic Car Show
Thursday, August 21 | 2:00–4:00 PM
Benedictine Living Community–Regina
1175 Nininger Road | Hastings, MN
This isn’t just an event. It’s an experience. A throwback to what summer used to feel like—and what it still can.
Here’s what to expect:
- Live oldies by Tony Casey
- Best Car Award (you get to vote!)
- Popcorn, hot dogs and pop (while they last!)
- A community event made for all ages
And yes—you’ll want to take a few photos. Especially if you’re coming with your grandkids, a friend or that loved one who “used to have one just like that.”
Why This Event Means So Much More
This event brings value beyond the fun:
- For seniors: It’s a low-pressure way to re-engage with community and feel connected.
- For families: It’s an easy, joyful excuse to spend time with Mom, Dad, Grandma or Grandpa.
- For Hastings locals: It’s a free, welcoming event right in your own backyard.
According to the Mayo Clinic, shared social experiences, especially across generations, can significantly boost emotional well-being and memory in older adults.
So yes, this is a car show. But it’s also a chance to create a moment that sticks. Like the ones you wish you had more of.
