The Vernon County Youth Task Force and the Nevada Elks Lodge No. 564 hosted their first "Kruzin' for Kids" car show and Battle of the Bands event on Saturday at the lodge. Several area youth and their families attended, despite the sweltering summer temperatures in the upper 90s.

Although the crowd was small, organizers said they were pleased with the turnout of spectators and participants, especially since this was the first time the event had been held.

Spectators were treated to up-close views of antique and show cars on display, and refreshments and games also highlighted the day.
