Registration, which costs $15, is slated for 9 a.m. to noon, while the car show will take place from noon to 4 p.m. The event will feature DJ Dick “Hot Dog” Ryman and 140 trophies and plaques will be awarded to benefit the Circle of Victory. The top 100 cars will receive plaques, while the first 250 vehicles will receive goodie bags, a T-shirt and dash plaque. The vehicle that is named “Best of Show” will receive a six-foot trophy and $200 cash.

St. Mark’s Lutheran Church and Abiding Christ Lutheran Church are also working together to provide a hot dog lunch at the 2019 Fairborn Car Show Sept. 22.

Lunch will be available at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church at 100 E. Main St. at the corner of Main and Pleasant streets. Thanks to an action grant from Thrivent Financial, the hot dog lunch will be available for free. Donations will be accepted, and all donations will go directly to Lutheran Disaster Response.
