'Driving Miss Daffodil' car rally, plus cars & coffee on Sunday

Posted

Decorate your car with bright yellow daffiness, don your daffy best, and head down to Easton’s Beach in Newport on Sunday, April 21, for the start of a one-of-a-kind “Driving Miss Daffodil” car rally. Mix, mingle and gawk before the cavalcade rolls off.

Miss Daffodil and the folks from the Audrain Automotive Museum will lead everyone along a picturesque route to Ocean Drive and back along historic Bellevue Avenue, ending at Second Beach in Middletown, with front row parking at the ever-popular Cars & Coffee. Prizes for Daffiest dressed cars (and drivers!). Proceeds benefit Newport in Bloom.

The rally begins at 8 a.m. at Easton's Beach (First Beach), with coffee & cars scheduled for 10 a.m. at Sachuest Beach (Second Beach) in Middletown.
