Eureka Springs Annual Mustang Show
Ford Mustang
The Ford Mustang is an American icon. Nearly everyone has connections and fond memories of America’s first and favorite pony car. This year’s show will be Saturday, May 28th from 8 am to 4 pm and features all models from 1964 to present, original and modified.
The Eureka Springs Mustang Show is the ONLY car show in the Ozarks dedicated exclusively the Ford Mustang. There is no charge for spectators, so plan on joining us. Several Midwest Mustang clubs make this yearly Spring event a “must do” annual get-together and stay several days. There will also be a Mustang Parade through historic downtown at 2:00 pm on Saturday, so find you a good spot along the parade route.
Enjoy the scenery and friendly atmosphere of Eureka Springs while you bring back some wonderful memories. Our Eureka Springs Bed and Breakfast is a great place for a relaxing getaway and we’re really close to the Mustang Show in Pine Mountain Village, so plan a getaway with us!
Eureka Springs – Voices of the Silent City
The history of Eureka Springs is filled with many colorful characters.
Charles Conner, Carnegie Library Contractor
Not intended to be spooky, volunteers in period clothing portray some of the early citizens of Eureka Springs. Some of the characters were pillars of the community and others were figures whose colorful, outrageous or scandalous behavior helped shape the history and the myths of the town. This is an approximately one hour walking tour that includes 5 minute stops with each “citizen.” Tours are scheduled to start around 5:30 p.m. and will leave every twenty minutes, the last one ending at 8:00 p.m.
Tickets may be purchased at the event. Free parking and shuttle service will be available at Eastgate Shopping Center located on Highway 62 East across from Passion Play Road.
This is a wonderful fundraising project of the Historical Museum and proceeds are used to finance daily operations, special exhibits and on-going restoration projects. The all new 2011 fall tour is scheduled for two weekends in October, the 14th & 15th and 28th & 29th.
For more information, call the Museum at 479/253-9417.

Evening Shade Inn Bed and Breakfast Triple Chocolate Cake Recipe
Make two 9 inch layers of Devil’s Food Cake by box directions.
Place layer of Chocolate Ganache between the layers.
Frost Cake with Extra Smooth Frosting.
Top with toasted almond pieces.
Ganache
1/2 pound bittersweet chocolate (hershey’s special dark chips)
1/2 cup heavy cream
Chop chocolate or use chocolate chips and place in a 2-quart bowl.
Place cream in a micro-wave safe measuring cup and bring to a boil (about 1 minute). Pause and bring to a boil twice more (should take only a few seconds the second and third time). Wait 20 seconds, then pour the cream over the chocolate. Use a spoon to blend the chocolate until it is soft. Whisk starting in the center of the bowl and gradually work out. Stop as soon as mixture is blended. Ganache can keep in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Makes enough to frost between two 9″ cake layers.
Extra Smooth Frosting
10 ounces bittersweet chocolate (60% cacao works best), chopped
1 1/2 cups unsalted buter, room temperature
3 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Place chopped chocolate in a medium metal bowl, set bowl over saucepan of simmering water and stir until choclate is melted and smooth. Carefully remove bowl from over water, let melted chocolate cool until lukewarm, stirring occasionally. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until smooth and creamy. Sift powdered sugar over buter and beat until well blended, about 2 minutes. Beat in vanilla. Add melted chocolate and beat until well blended and smooth, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl.
