Autumn Trails Tour
The
last weekend in October is Autumn Trails time in the little East Texas
town of Winnsboro. This event mainly caters to Model A'ers but many
other types of collector cars make the trek. Events include a Friday
night stew, a parade down Main Street, looking through the shops, hardware
store and bakery, a swap meet, car games, and an awards banquet. Sunday
morning brings a scenic tour down some back roads of East Texas. This
event is put on each year by the Autumn Trails Model A Ford Club.
