Do you love old cars? Does the sight of a classic Corvette or a car with tail fins make you smile? Then be prepared to do a lot of smiling on Sunday, June 27 because that's the date of the Sixth Annual Elm Bank Antique Auto Show.

Scheduled to run from 9:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m., the show features hundreds of classic cars, from hot rods and pace cars to lovingly restored autos from the fifties and sixties, when cars were more than just something to get you from point A to point B. There are competitions for 'best of show' in multiple categories. Visitors will have the opportunity to talk with owners, look under the hood, and maybe even sit behind of their favorite vintage cars.

The day will be filled with more than just automobiles. There will be live music (oldies, naturally), food and drink, and a swap meet area where you can browse for memorabilia. In an era when all cars seem to look more and more alike, it's an opportunity to renew your love affair with the automobile - or to introduce a new generation to the thrill of a GTO, a Triumph, or an original Mustang. Admission is $5, children under 12 are free and includes all events.

While you're at the show, you'll have the opportunity to wander Elm Bank's spectacular gardens, which are in their prime at the end of June. Elm Bank's 36 acres encompass both formal and informal gardens created by and under the care of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society.

Elm Bank is located in Dover; its entrance is on Route 16 on the Wellesley/South Natick town line, a mile south of Wellesley College. If you have a car you'd like to display at the Elm Bank Antique Auto Show, contact Charlie Harris at 781-726-2830.

The Wellesley Police Department has partnered with Nixle www.nixle.com to bring community notifications to a new level. The system, which is free, allows citizens to sign up for notifications from the Wellesley Police Department. Users then decide what type and how many notifications they will receive. Users can also specify whether they receive the alerts via their text capable cell phone, email, website, or all three.

This is a great way to stay informed about what is going on in the Wellesley community, whether you are at home or away. The Wellesley Police Department is very committed to this service and strive to make accurate, fast notifications to citizens.

Here is a breakdown of what the Wellesley Police will be sending via this service:

ALERT ADVISORY: This is the highest level of community notification and will be reserved for very important events. Such notifications will include significant crimes of violence, bank robberies, bomb incidents, mass evacuations, missing children and major fires.

ADVISORIES: This is the second level of community notification. Items that will be sent include serious accidents, property crimes (break ins), vehicle and suspect descriptions, and other minor events that the Wellesley Police is involved in.

TRAFFIC: This is the lowest level of community notification and will include planned street closures, traffic updates around town, expected delays due to construction, and other traffic related matters.

COMMUNITY: This notification is reserved for Wellesley Police non-breaking news, non-emergency type notifications that may be of interest to the Wellesley community.
