The local weekly classic and antique vehicle "cruise in" has a new location.

Starting July 13, the Hamilton's Cruisin' will move to East broad Street between Payne and John streets. The event began several years ago in the parking lot of the then Ames Plaza. It then moved further out of town and to the opposite side of Rte 12B to Vantine Imaging's parking lot.

Organizer Ben Barrett said the move into the business district gives participants and spectators easier access to the event as well as the amenities of downtown.

The village Board of Trustees voted during a special meeting Tuesday to approve the street closing for the cruise in. Barrett thanked the board for its quick response and the Vantine's for making its parking lot available for the even.

Hamilton's Cruisin' is held from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The last event to be held at Vantine's is Tuesday.

The series runs through Sept. 7
