Full throttle for ASTW

Body

Registration for the 23rd Annual A Small Town Weekend is looking good, said El Reno Cruisers spokesman Allen Conner.

The event is set for June 4-6 and is attracting participation from across Oklahoma and elsewhere.

“We’ve got registrations from Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and other states,” Conner said.

He said while the numbers are encouraging, there’s no way of knowing if the tribute to small-town America and Route 66 will draw the kind of participation it did a few years back.

The El Reno Police Department has one clear message to those wanting to burn rubber on city streets: “Pay 10 bucks and come to A Small Town Weekend,” said Lt. Brian Hickman.

That’s right, one of ASTW's biggest crowd draws will be laying down the rubber on the Mother Road as the Route 66 Burnout returns after a year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It’s good to be back and we think it’s going to be a good year. This (ASTW) will be the first event in the city opened up to full capacity and we are excited to be back.”

The 23rd Annual A Small Town Weekend will not only pay tribute to America’s love affair with classic cars and Route 66, it will also serve as a fundraiser for the Redlands Community College women’s golf program.

The El Reno Cruisers have put on the three-day salute to small-town America with the event since it first arrived on the scene in 1998. And for the second consecutive year, the colorful gathering will open with an 18-hole, four-player scramble golf tournament.
