The Labor Day Car Show is a long-running community event in Fairfax that originated in Clifton, historically associated with the Clifton Lions Club, and has been organized in recent years by Jeff Greenfield. The event has a notable charitable dimension: over seven years, it has provided thousands of backpacks filled with school supplies to city schools, and most recently donated $5,000 to school food pantries ($1,250 per school), recognized by the School Board at its April 6, 2026 meeting.
