The Kenton Historic Courthouse District Committee (HCD), part of the Hardin County Chamber & Business Alliance, announces the return of the  Eats on the streets Friday Night Food Truck Fest, set for Friday, June 24, in downtown Kenton. 

The event will take place from 5 to 10 p.m. on Columbus and Main streets within the Kenton Historic Courthouse District. 

This years' event will include more food options, with 10 food trucks confirmed to-date, along with the vintage motorcycle displays, classic car show, live music, craft beer station, photo booth and the “Chairs for Hope” auction supporting Not by Choice Outreach. 

In addition, in a joint video announcement with Rogers Nationwide Insurance Agency and posted on Kenton's HCD Facebook page, the event will welcome Dale Earnhart Jr’s #88 NASCAR.  Attendees can see the racecar in person and have a chance to win an autographed racing helmet. 

“With warm sunny weather, we expect the Eats on the Street event to be bigger and better than last year,” said Jacqualine Fitzgerald, event creator with Historic Courthouse District Committee.  “Last year was exciting to put feet on the street to enjoy a festive time with friends, family and community members, and with less than ideal conditions, we still had over 3,000 people in downtown Kenton.”

For more information visit the Kenton HCD Facebook event page or to enter your vintage motorcycle or classic car, contact the Hardin County Chamber & Business Alliance at 419-673-4131 or email Jacqualine Fitzgerald at [email protected]. 

Money raised that evening supports the Kenton Historic Courthouse District Committee and its downtown revitalization and beautification efforts.
