Put Classics on the calendar
Downtown Bowling Green is planning the Classics on Main Car Show.
After three years of management through the Sentinel Tribune, Downtown Bowling Green is now managing and
promoting the car show.
Special events manager Samantha Beane is looking forward to bringing the show back to the non-profit
office and continuing its success.
“We are so thankful for the Sentinel’s willingness to take over the show years ago and after one
successful event transition (with the farmers market) last summer, we are looking forward to continuing
event success in our office.” said Tony Vetter, director of Downtown Bowling Green.
The Classics on Main show is set to continue on July 13 from noon-4 p.m. Committee members have already
begun the early plans, but are looking for volunteers.
Email inquiries are welcome at [email protected] or call the Downtown BG Office at
419-354-4332.
“This shows success is truly community driven, and we look forward to bringing in the veterans who have
created the show back, as well as new faces to help introduce our show and town to the next generation,”
Beane said.
