Beaumont - Hot August Nights

[AllenAyres]

If you like hot rods and custom cars and trucks Hot August Nights comes to Beaumont this weekend.

Hundreds of vehicles will be cruising 11th Street with thousands lining the sidewalks and parking lots on both sides. There'll be cars out Friday night but the bigger day is Saturday. A car show is usually held downtown at Crocket Street on Saturday afternoon with everyone hitting the drag in the evening.

Our church (Christ Community Church (the old Kinsel Ford building on 11th)) is on the southern end of the drag - most vehicles use our parking lot to pull up in, show the car off, park for a while, turn around and head back north up 11th St. - so if you like taking photos of hot rods and lots of other nice vehicles, come on by. I'll be there in the evening - there will be bbq links and drinks available (free or cheap, can't remember) - say something to the tall gray-haired guy carrying the 40D
