Local businesses, B&B Auto and Vian Wheel & Tire, will be hosting the 1st annual Burnin Down Main Street car show, burnout and cruise night for the Town of Vian on Saturday, Oct. 6, with a portion of the proceeds of the event being donated to Vian Public Schools and the Little League program.

Co-organizers of the event, Sammy Bolin of B&B Auto and Jay Jordan with Vian Wheel & Tire, said the day will start with registration at 12 noon followed by the car show from 2 to 4 p.m., and judging at 3 p.m. Trophies and cash prizes will be awarded.

Bolin said they already have one food truck signed up that has agreed to come out and sell food and drinks and are now hoping to accumulate sponsors for the event.

“We will be blocking off Main Street that day for the event,” he said. “We’ll have a live band playing music in the gazebo in the downtown Anna Belle Farmer Park, too, with the burnout also being held on Main Street beginning at 6 p.m.”

Jordan said the cruise will start at dusk following the burnout and a Facebook page has been set up to follow for updates, which will also be published in the NEWS as they are announced.

Anyone wishing to help sponsor this year’s event is asked to contact Bolin at 918-208-9695.
