LES SCHWAB CRUISIN’
— A classic and custom car show, Les Schwab
Cruisin’ will be June 8 in Sherwood’s Old Town. One of the biggest attractions
is the annual burnout, where spectators vote by applause for the best and
loudest peel out, and the engine blow, where cars are drained of coolant and
run until the engine dies while onlookers take bets about which engine will
run the longest. For more information, visit cruisinsherwood.com.
