Nostalgic Nova's
had their "Mini-Nat" this weekend at Old Town, "Trophy Row" behind
"Black Hills Minerals" down to the Roller Coaster was lined with Nova
after Nova.
We arrived at Old Town about 1:30 about 40 cars and
all of the Novas occupied "Trophy Row". The weather could not have been
much better. I maneuvered the old Ranchero into a spot right next to the
Chestnut '39 Mercury convert owned by Clarence and Carmen Elder of
Owensboro, KY. Linda and I started to track down "Thursday Nite
Cruisers" so that we might give them a copy of the "Saint Cloud,
Thursday Nite Official Cruise-In News", this last Thursday was our first
"Rain Out" of the year and I knew they would want the newsletter.
After some of the Novas pulled out I then moved the
Ranchero next to "CTG" Ed and Evelyn Booher's '63 Corvair Monza in their
usual spot. I had "Mustang Mike" take my spot next to the Merc. The '68
Mustang owned by Mike liked that side of the street much better then
where he had been parked.
A Charity Raffle and donation plea was held to
Benefit The Betty Wise Family, she was the member of the Old Town
family that fatally wounded during a hold up at the Old Town Checkers
last Wednesday Night.
307 cars registered and "Cruised" Deac Hundley Blvd"
at 8:30 much to the delight of the thousands and I mean the largest
crowd I have seen in while, were cheering on this 14 plus year
tradition. The Cruise was led by the Cruiser of the Month and
convertibles filled with "Kissimmee
Kreatures" the newest NIFL team.
By nights end over $2700 was collected for Betty's
family! Good going Cruisers!
A big thanks to the "Cruise Staff" and Cruise Master
Mike T. for another great day at Old Town.
