Bus Collection Spring Fling
May 31 – Jun 1
The annual Spring Fling is planned for May 31st and June 1st, and we hope you’ll join us as we celebrate Prevost’s 100th anniversary (Check out the Prevost 100th Anniversary video). Clarisse, a reproduction of the first Prevost bus built in 1924, will be on-site for Spring Fling guests.
Again, we’re recognizing the hard work of our volunteers, our vendors’ generosity, and our guests’ commitment. Their combined efforts have provided substantial support for the museum.

Fuel & Tire Saver Service
Fuel & Tire Saver will perform on-site tire services at the Spring Fling, including Nitrogen-only inflation. FTS uses Nitrogen in all of its tire fills because this one small change in tire maintenance, particularly in heavier, multi-tire vehicles, can save fleets thousands of dollars annually. June 1st only: Register HERE for Fuel & Tire Saver Service
