Vistors to Roll Windows Down at River 2 River Cruise and Show This Weekend

river 2 riverHundreds of vintage cars and trucks will line up on Main Street today for the 10th annual two day River 2 River Car Cruise and the Car Show.

Host Kenton Bowels tells the Galesburg’s Morning News on WGIL, that many visitors will likely pass state lines and travel to Galesburg for this event.

“We pull from about five good states around here,” says Bowels. “People come in and many people take their vacation back from Florida to come to it.”

The Car cruise will kick of at 1 p.m, with drivers beginning to park their vintage vehicles. Bowels wife Pam tells the Galesburg Morning News on WGIL, the cruise is expected to have a slightly larger turn out this year due to the amount of space they have obtained.

“We go from Academy to Seminary and a block each way off of Main. Last year we had 1,500 cars. We picked up from West to Academy this year, so we’re anticipating maybe a few more.”

Bowels says alongside the vintage motors will be food, entertainment, and vendors for the whole family to enjoy.
