Westmont Street Fair, Cruisin’ Nights continue to grow in popularity By Joan Rykal | For The Bugle he Westmont Street Fair and Cruisin’ Nights event has grown every year, especially with the village’s decision to block off a portion of Cass Avenue. Bob Reid, vice president of Westmont Special Events, said the decision made a few years ago to block off portions of Cass Avenue for the weekly event -- held Thursday evenings throughout the summer -- made a big difference in attendance. “It has doubled every year since we made the decision three years ago,” he said. “Last year, we had more than 190 cars for cruise night.” Reid said people like to just sit and talk with friends and exhibitors and not worry about traffic.
