The annual Tyler Valcich Memorial Car Show and Cruise is planned for Sunday at the Amagansett Firehouse, honoring the memory of a 20-year-old Montauker who died in 2014 while also raising awareness and financial support for youth mental health.

From 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., cars of all makes and models — plus motorcycles, trucks, and even boats — will be on display at Fire Department headquarters at 439 Main Street. There will be food vendors, live music, train rides for children, and raffle prizes on offer as a fund-raiser for the nonprofit Tyler Project. The cruise starts at 3 p.m. There will be a "best in show" prize awarded this year for the first time.

The cost to register a vehicle and driver is $25. Spectator admission is $10; children under 12 can get in for free. Registration and ticket sales are online at tylerproject.org or by phone at 631-604-8865.
