Fall is called “the secret
season" in Myrtle Beach. The summer crowds are gone but the weather is perfect
for all kinds of outdoor activities. The air temperatures are in the high 70s,
while the ocean water hovers around 73 degrees.
Best of all, it's festival season in
Myrtle Beach, and there's something going on at Broadway at the Beach every
week.
Cars take center stage on
October 3 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. when the
5th Annual Coastal Carolina Mustang Stampede & All
Ford Car Show
is
held near Hard Rock Cafe. It's been more than 50 years since the first Mustang
was introduced. The 1965 version became the first car ever to win the Tiffany
Gold Medal for excellence in American design. Come see how the car named Motor
Trend's Car of The Year twice has evolved over the years, while capturing a
slot on Car and Driver's Ten Best list six times. But this show isn't just
about Mustangs. Registration is open to all Ford vehicles in 23 classes, so
there will be lots of models to check out.
The following week, the Out of the Darkness Walk will be
held on October 10, with registration beginning at 9 a.m. and the walk at 10
a.m. The event provides an opportunity to get some exercise in while raising
money for a good cause. Proceeds from the Walk benefit American Foundation for
Suicide Prevention.
