Thunder On The River Set For June 15 It’s called Thunder on the River, and if you are in downtown Columbia on Saturday, June 15, you will know why. You might want to wear earplugs as more than 500 cars, trucks, and motorcycles will roll into town for the annual car show and rev their engines in unison for a few minutes after the national anthem at noon. “We started this tradition a few years ago, and it’s become a highlight of the show,” said Paul Resch, vice president of the Columbia Lions Club, which organizes the show along with the Susquehanna Valley Chamber of Commerce (SVCC). “A lot of people think that’s how the car show got its name since the sound of 500 engines at full throttle sounds a lot like a thunder storm. The truth is, we came up with the name first, and then a few years ago someone had this idea. It was perfect.” The annual Thunder on the River car

and motorcycle show will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on June 15, rain or shine. Vehicles will be lined up along Locust Street between Second and Sixth streets and in the Locust Street Park. Admission is free for spectators.
