Due to the construction on Miller Lane in Benchwood Station, the Cruise-In to Butler Township has been rescheduled and relocated for 2024! The Cruise-In will join with the Party in the Park at VanAtta Park on Saturday, October 5th from Noon to 6 p.m.

Cruise-In participants will be able to enter the park from Trimdell Lane off Brantford Road to avoid the speed bumps through the park!. Join us for a great fall festival, packed with music, food, fun, and lots of great cars! Stay tuned for more details.
