WARWICK — This Saturday, Oct. 7, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., WTBQ Radio (1110 AM/93.5 FM) will sponsor a Classic Car Show at the Warwick Drive-In.
The event will feature food trucks, music, special raffles, contests and a 50/50 drawing followed by a free showing of the movie "Grease."
And all proceeds will go to WTBQ's co-sponsor, the Warwick Valley Rotary Club, to be donated to worthy charities in the community.
Up to 300 classic cars have been invited to join.
Car pre-registration is $15 or $20 at the gate. Admission is free to the public.
The "A-ONE" rated food trucks on site include Piranha Grill, Off The Hook, Chicken Wings & Things, Corbett's Cookie Bar, Pine Island Brewing and the Glenmere Brewing Company.
There will also be a playground for the kids.
After the trophies and dash plaques are awarded, the sponsors will draw the 50/50 and other raffle tickets.
Warwick is one of a dwindling number of communities that still offers the unique experience of the drive-in movie theater
The Warwick-Drive-In, 5 Warwick Turnpike, located behind ShopRite Plaza, was built in 1950 and in 2014 converted from film to digital projection which has greatly enhanced the movie experience.
The Warwick Valley Rotary Club is a dedicated group of individuals who exchange ideas, build relationships, and take action in order to create positive, lasting change in the community.
The organization supports many programs including the American Cancer Society, Meals on Wheels, Backpack snack Attack, Garden of the Child, Warwick Valley Community Center, Warwick & Florida Food Pantry, the Senior Barbecue, SADD, Beautiful People, Literacy Orange and the Warwick Humane Society.
