Wentzville, it’s almost time for Round Two of our annual Rod Run and after the unbelievable turnout on June 5th, we’re gearing up for an even bigger night of cruising, community, and classic car culture.
Our June 5th Rod Run sold out in about an hour and a half, with hundreds of cars filling the route and thousands of spectators lining the sidewalks. The energy and support for the S.T.A.R.T. Program was incredible.
Now we’re ready to do it again on Friday, August 7th from 6:00 PM to 9:30 PM.
NEW this year: Extended Cruise Route
This year, the cruise route has been expanded to give everyone more room to enjoy the night.
The route will now:
- Turn around in the American Legion parking lot
- Turn around in the Pearce Hall parking lot
This extended loop helps improve traffic flow and gives cruisers more space to enjoy the evening.
Cruise Pass Information
- $10 donation to cruise the route.
- Proceeds benefit the Wentzville Police Department’s S.T.A.R.T. Program
- Once you have your pass, you may join or leave the cruise at any point along the route
