With more than 220 classic cars on the field this year was the second largest ever. The weather was perfect and we had a great turn out of cars and pedestrians. Thank you one and all for a great job. Did you see we had 3 Sunbeam Tigers? We had made a few changes for the show this year which I think worked well, but there were a couple things we ll fix for next year. Now, on to August. We still have a couple of months to drive and show our classic cars. Friday, August 18th is the 3rd Friday cruise-in at Advance Auto Parts, Ogdensburg. 6 to 8 p.m. they had to stop the free food, but Burger King and McDonalds are near by. I have picked up some door prizes for the 50/50. Seaway Cruisers Event Saturday & Sunday, September 2nd & 3rd Show Car Event at Lisbon Beach Park, Event begins at 11 a.m. both days.
