We don’t have a guest speaker for this meeting but will be presenting a number of video presentations. One video will provide an overview of the Crusin For A Cure event held annually in California. We are planning for a similar Canadian event this September and this video will give you a good idea as to the nature of the event. See Jim Dorsey’s column below for further information.

Cruisin’ for a Cure Canada Has a Tentative Location & Date

After months of frustrating searching, we are pleased to announce that the First Annual “Cruisin’ for a Cure Canada” will be most likely be held at Donald M. Gordon Chinguacousy Park. The tentative date is Saturday, September 1st. Much to our delight, Mayor Susan Fennell has thrown her support behind the project. John Sleath and I have already met with Mr. Harvey Newlove, Director of Recreation Facilities & Programs to establish the feasibility of using Chinguacousy Park.

The next step is to present the project to City Council. With their approval in hand, we will then be able to meet with the staff of Chinguacousy Park to begin the hard work of planning all the details of this huge event. And now we need your help to locate sponsors, enroll exhibitors, sign up businesses, sell tickets, supervise customer parking and all the other tasks that must be accomplished if this event is to be successful. If you are Car Crazy or if you know others who are, come on out and get involved.
