Oswego PD Plans 7th Annual Benefit Car, Truck Show

OSWEGO, IL — The seventh annual car and truck show, benefitting the Oswego Police Public Safety Cadet Corp Unit #1833, formerly known as the Explorer Post 3525, is coming up Sept. 6.

A few things are different this time around than in years past. The event, previously held on a Saturday night, is taking place on a Friday night. The show also moved locations, now taking place on Main Street in downtown Oswego.

Food trucks, raffles and door prizes are on the docket for the event, scheduled from 6-9 p.m.

The show is open to all makes, models and years of cars. Pre-registration costs $15, and all proceeds — including from the show and the 50/50 raffle — will go to support activities and supplies for the Cadet Corps.

Registration on the day off will begin at 5 p.m. Spectator admission is free.

“The Oswego Police Department Cadet Corps Unit #1833 is proud to be hosting this event and is hoping that the public will come out and enjoy this event,” police wrote in a news release. “Proceeds will support our law enforcement exploring post, which mentors young adults who will be the next generation of law enforcement. Please join us for music, cars, trucks and fun!”
