In memory of Red Parkhouse, his wife, Jan and family members organized a “Street Rod” car show benefiting Eaton Community Hospice which was held on July 29, 2007. Dash plaques were given to the first 100 entrants and trophies were awarded to the top cars. Participants had a chance to win some cash in a 50/50 drawing, a door prize or any of the items offered in the silent auction. Margaret Kyser was given the distinguished honor of awarding the first ever “Hospice Favorite” trophy to one lucky winner.

Supporters enjoyed lunch on the fair grounds and “jammed to the oldies” music while checking out the “Street Rods.” Our thanks to Jan Parkhouse and her family and friends for supporting Hospice while they honored Red’s memory with this fantastic show. Your participation and generosity raised $5,000.00! A very special thanks to the Eaton County Fair Board for donating the fair grounds and to Bryner Septic Service for donating the MUCH NEEDED porta-johns for this event. You folks are truly appreciated!
