Ault Park Concours d’Elegance Winners and Photo Gallery
The 2009 Ault Park Concours d’Elegance was held on Sunday, June 14, 2009 in Cincinnati’s historic Ault Park.
The 32nd annual Ault Park Concours displayed 233 vehicles and nearly 5,000 people attended the event. This year’s Concours featured “Excellence in German Design & Engineering,” plus special displays of land-speed record cars, the 100th anniversary of Morgan automobiles and historic Indian motorcycles, in addition to a multitude of other classes of automobiles. All net proceeds benefited the Ohio Valley Chapter of the Arthritis Foundation.
“We had an amazing event this year, particularly considering the current economic conditions. Not only did we have record attendance for Sunday’s Concours, our Friday night fundraising event and Saturday countryside tour and garage party were extremely well-attended,” said Sue Willis, Executive Director of the Cincinnati Concours d’ Elegance Foundation.
The 2010 Ault Park Concours d’ Elegance will be held on Sunday, June 13, 2010, with the theme to be announced in the coming months. For more information and to view the complete list of the 2009 Ault Park Concours d’ Elegance award winners, visit www.ohioconcours.com.
