I've found a place where teenagers, families, seniors, tots, singles and groups can have fun. It's safe, clean and fun.
Each month, a tiny Stanly County town hosts the Oakboro Summer Cruise-in and Burnout. Yes, the town is Oakboro and a cruise-in is a gathering of old cars, but what is a burnout?
Put one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake - spin tires - hear 'em squeal - and make smoke. Lots of it! White billowing smoke can be seen all over town - and thousands of people applaud. For more information, log onto http://www.oakborocruisein.com.
On Saturday, June 10, top names will perform at the Big Lick Bluegrass Festival near Oakboro. Yes, the story could be about the show, but there's really an interesting feature in the producer, Jeff Branch. His fulltime, daytime job is a deputy for the Montgomery County Sheriff's Department. Off-duty, he doubles as Howard Sprauge, from "The Andy Griffith Show" and puts on events. To find Jeff, log onto http://www.oakboromusichall.com.

Oakboro has really done a great job hosting this event. It is a lot of fun and is something people look forward to each month.
We are going to be performing there during the August 2007 cruise-in (8/24/07). We are a Johnny Cash tribute band (www.TheFolsomPrisonGang.com) and are very much looking forward to this particular gig.
