After careful consideration the Bluffton Lions Foundation along with the Festival of Wheels Committee have decided to cancel Bluffton's 53rd annual Festival of Wheels Car Show, according to Dan Diller, chair of the event.
The show was originally set for Friday, June 19, and the cancellation is due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
"We hope to continue this annual festival in 2021 and will see you then," said Diller.

Below is our attempt to photograph them earlier in the week. At that point the hadn't learned the parade formation demonstrated in today's photo.
