2nd Cruisin Grand 9-15

Event Report: Poway Cruisers at Cruisin Grand, September 15th, 2017

What a great way to end the week! Cruisin Grand was great fun!

As planned, the gang started congregating on North Kalmia around 4:00 PM, I arrived about 4:20 PM and there were already 6 cruisers parked.  As promised, Steve Waldron had reserved the first half block of North Kalmia for the Poway Cruisers, and the traffic control guys where making sure no one crashed the party.  By around 5:30 we had 21 cars on display, we got the club banner hung up for display, and everyone was enjoying the early evening. Walking around we found at least 3 other member cars that could not find North Kalmia so they parked where they could. Still fun.

Many of the Cruisers took advantage of the many excellent fine dining establishments on Grand Ave, before making the rounds. Around 6:15 PM, the Reunion program kicked off, with many of the AFX and Carlsbad Raceway vehicles showing off with their own version of a cackle fest. Great Fun, Great sounds. By 7:15 PM the temperature was starting to cool down, and the party began to break up. As we were almost ready to leave, Steve Waldron stopped by and said “You can’t leave. Your Buick is getting an award.” So, we joined the other 4 winners for the awards ceremony before heading home. What a great way to end the day!
