After last year’s huge success, doubling in size to over 175 cars, on Saturday July 16 Edgefield will host the third annual Cruise-In on the Square from 4 to 7 p.m. People with classic cars, trucks or motorcycles are invited to park on the square and enjoy the atmosphere of dozens of car enthusiasts. Spectators are welcome, but asked to park outside of the square area to make room for the Cruise In attendees. There will be a live broadcast from WKSX on the Square playing Oldies.

Beth Padgett owner of The House Next Door gift and antique shop on Jeter Street right behind the Courthouse downtown is the creator of this new event for Edgefield. Beth caught the car bug from her Daddy, Tiny Black of Trenton, who was a car enthusiast for many years. Beth has been a member of the Casual Corvette Club of the CSRA for over 14 years.

Major sponsors are The Town of Edgefield, The National Wild Turkey Federation and local car companies: Jim Satcher Ford, Pendarvis Chevrolet, and Herlong Chevrolet, Buick and Ford, Reel Insurance and Carolina Moon Distillery.
