PERRYSBURG — The Transportation programs at Penta Career Center will host their 11th annual Cruise-In Car Show on Wednesday from 4:30-7:30 p.m. on the Penta campus located at 9301 Buck Road.
All types of vehicles and motorcycles are welcome to participate. Vehicle owners are admitted free of charge as long as they bring a non-perishable food item (e.g., peanut butter, boxed macaroni & cheese, boxed cookies, crackers, or canned chili) or a personal hygiene item (e.g., soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, etc.) to donate to the Penta Pantry.
The pantry helps Penta students and their families who are in need of assistance.
Other activities that will take place at the Cruise-In include music and door prizes such as car care kits, gift certificates and products from several Penta programs. Students who are members of Family, Career and Community Leaders of America will have activities for children called the “Kids Garage” during the Cruise-In.
Food will be available for purchase from several food trucks.
In addition, awards will be presented to vehicle owners in the following categories: Penta Alumni, Superintendent’s Choice and Best Motorcycle.
The event is organized by Penta’s Transportation programs and SkillsUSA, a leadership organization for career-technical education students.
