Renowned farmers and vintners John & Gail Kautz envisioned an event that would benefit young people involved in agriculture, notably 4-H, Future Farmers of America and the California State Fair Scholarship Fund. From this initial idea, the Ironstone Concours d’Elegance Foundation was formed.
The antique and classic car show takes place at the beautiful grounds of Ironstone Vineyards in the gold country of the Sierra Nevada. Concours d’Elegance features more than 300 antique and classic cars as well as vintage trailers, motorcycles, and wooden boats. More that 3,000 visitors enjoy the beauty of the automobiles in the ambiance of the beautifully landscaped grounds of Ironstone Vineyards in Murphys, California.
Honored vehicle marques vary and include Packard, Pierce-Arrow, Bentley, Willys, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Amphicars and vintage tractors. Early Fords, sports cars, exotics, century-old race cars and motorcycles, coach-built luxury marques, and unrestored and original automobiles are also spotlighted.
In the spirit of Concours, we encourage you to wear vintage hats to show your support of this classic, elegant event. We look forward to having you join in contributing to this wonderful event that benefits the youth in our community.
The Ironstone Concours d’Elegance offers sponsorship opportunities to fit a wide range of budgets. Participation in this prestigious event is a cost-effective way to create publicity and visibility for your company while showing your support for the Future Farmers of America, California 4-H Youth Development Programs and the California State Fair Scholarship Programs.
Whether it is sponsoring a car class at this year’s event or a special gift item bearing your name and logo, we look forward to finding a way for you to get involved. If you need a sponsorship package customized to meet your business objectives, please phone (209) 269-6950 or email us at Info@IronstoneConcours.com.
In-kind donations are welcome, and assets will be awarded commensurate to declared value.
