Cobble Beach and Elegance

 Plan Ahead

   Last year we drove up to Kemble for the Cobble Beach Concours d'Elegance and even stopped in Owen Sound for the Concours d'Lemons. That trip can be revisited here: "Cobble Beach Concours d'Elegance." We enjoyed it so much, we wanted to attend again this year, but could not. We hope to go next year and if you procrastinate as I do, then you might want to pay attention and think about booking now. The clock is ticking.

  That screen shot was grabbed from the Cobble website on October 23 and you have even less time now. Although September 2025 seems a long way off, it is not. If you think the Cobble Beach Concours d'Elegance is just another classic car show, it is not. The bit of French should have alerted you to the fact that it is more about stylish objects than excessively chromed cars and engines. Plus, Cobble Beach is a pleasant destination. It is a golf resort and community of fine homes in Kemble on the Georgian Bay. 

  All you need to know is provided by Cobble Beach, with which I have no connection. These links will supply you with fine photos, videos and additional articles to read, even if you do not think you will be able to travel up to Kemble.

Cobble Beach: The Destination.

The Cobble Beach Concours d'Elegance

See the various sections. The one for "Visitors" is the place to start. Then see all the photographs of elegance and the galleries featuring winners from the past. There are also useful links to press reports and articles. The picture above was taken from one of them: "Custom-bodied 1947 Bentley Wins Cobble Beach Best of Show," Alyn Edwards, Driving, Sept. 16, 2024.

As I mentioned, I have no connection with the folks at Cobble. Also, it is worth noting that the event raises money for charities.
