Red Hot Car Hop

Meridian's A&W-Long John Silvers took a step back in time today for a special occasion.

 

The restaurant hosted a Red Hot Car Hop car show this morning to raise money for the Choctaw Council of Boy Scouts. Cars from all decades filled the parking lot. The boy scouts were out selling popcorn and racing pinewood derby cars. All the money raised will benefit the boy scouts through United Way. And those who organized the event say giving back in this community is always a two-way street.

 

"The community gives to us through coming and buying our meals and root beers and all that," restaurant operator Bud Power says. "We just want to give back to the community. Doing things like this is just a very good way to do that."

"Oh, it's just fantastic," Brandon Booker of the Boy Scouts says. "Everything we do, we try to give back to the community, and it's overwhelming to see the community come out for us."

 

Power says organizers hope to make this car show an annual event.

 

Sounds like a FUNdraiser. I wonder if they would let Schiff bring his old RED Radio Flyer wagon?
