We had 92 cars and trucks at our show today and we cooked and sold 200 burgers and 150 hot dogs. We had amazing sponsors, participants, and members of our department who stepped up to make this show a HUGE success.

We would also like to thank Mayor Dennis Mitchell, City Clerk Pam Perry, Water Clerk Jane Edwards, and the City of Zeigler Street Department for their parts in making this event come together. A big thank you goes out to Franklin County Emergency Management for them allowing us the use of their mobile command trailer, generator, and personnel for this event.

We would also like to thank Hot Rod Nights for their amazing support planning this event, and providing top notch awards for our event. We cannot wait to see everyone back next year for what we hope is a bigger and better event.
