Rock the Schoolhouse brings car show, family fun to Clark Community Center
A $15 car show at Clark Community Center will add a burger bar, touch-a-truck and kids activities for a July 11 family day south of Millersburg.
Rock the Schoolhouse will turn Clark Community Center south of Millersburg into a one-day summer gathering on July 11, with Clark Community Center, Inc. pairing a car show with a burger bar, touch-a-truck setup and children’s activities. For Holmes County families looking for something close to home, the appeal is not just the vehicles but the chance to spend an afternoon at a familiar community site on State Route 83.
Registration will begin at 9 a.m. at 1390 State Route 83 in Millersburg, and the vehicle entry fee will be $15. The car show itself will run from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with judging set for 12:30 p.m. and winners announced at 1 p.m. The schedule gives the event a clear rhythm, with enough time for car owners, parents and casual visitors to move through the show without leaving the area.
Clark Community Center has used the Rock the Schoolhouse name before, promoting an outing that included a flea market, cornhole tournament and car show. That history suggests the event is becoming more than a single afternoon of chrome and engines. It is part of the center’s broader use as a place for outdoor gatherings, helped by a pavilion and playground area that the center has said are available for events and now include electricity.
The setting also carries local history. The Holmes County Historical Society says Clark was laid out in 1818 and was once a thriving village. Today, Clark Community Center is listed as a partner organization in Holmes County Heritage Partnership, tying the summer event to a place that has long played a civic role in the county’s landscape.
That combination of location, history and family-friendly programming is what gives Rock the Schoolhouse its pull. The car show will bring in hobbyists, but the burger bar, touch-a-truck display and kids activities will make the day feel built for households, not just collectors. In a county where many summer outings require a longer drive, Clark is positioning itself as a local stop that can hold a multigenerational crowd in one place.
