"Cruiser Appreciation Day"
Nearly 250 cars made it out tonight! The weatherman said there was only
about a 10% chance of rain, well I guess Old Town was right in the
middle of that percentage. The Skies were overcast all day and the rain
came to us off and on all day long..... Hmmmm, Good job to have, you can
be wrong and still get paid.....
At 8:30 there was a near record crowd of spectators to view this 15 year
old tradition. These vintage cars are always a big hit, people from all
over the world come to see this weekly spectacle.
All most all in attendance made it back to the stage for closing
ceremonies, it was after all the night that the merchants gave out some
great prizes.....
Lot's of extra discounts were enjoyed by the Cruisers tonight. We all
dined on the specials at the A&W. Thank You!
Down in block 4 were many members of FACACA. 3 Corvairs, 2 Ranchero's
and a Yellow Model A. "Mustang Mike" even made it out today.
Always good seeing him in that Mustang.
The set of tires tonight went home with Ron Bozarth and the $500 cash
went to Johnny Lynn.
Congratulations to the winners and a big THANK YOU. to the sponsors and
merchants of Old Town. Kudos to the "Cruise Staff" for making this event
safe and fun...
