NEWBERRY — The Midlands South Carolina Muscle and Classic Car Group held their most recent Cruise-In at Stokes Trainor Chevrolet on Saturday. President Zeb Reid said it was a fun Cruise-In during the day.

“I would like to thank Joe Trainor and his staff for allowing our group to have a cruise in at his dealership. After a windy and rainy Friday evening I was optimistic we would have a strong turnout, given some forecasters predicted thunderstorms during the Cruise-In. Lucky for our group, the sun came out and it turned out to be a nice day, Reid said. “Special Thanks To Karen Quin, owner of Little Mountain Antiques, for donating a gift basket for a raffle prize. Thank you to Shane Stafford, owner of Audio Advantage, for donating a set of speakers as a door prize. Thank you to Mac Bell for donating ice cream cones, slush drinks, tater tots, and corn dogs vouchers to members. Thank you to Phoenix Graphix for giving all members in attendance microfiber towels.”
