Join our fellow members for a fun-filled day of cruising and BBQ. Hosted by myself and the Llincolns on August 25th, 2018. We will start our day in the parking lot of the South Side A&W (Gateway & 50th Ave) where you will receive a list of items, locations (4), and your first poker card along with a number of questions you will need to answer along your journey. The poker Run will end at the Lincoln property in Tofield where we will treat you to a free BBQ. We may have more surprises in store but you’ll just have to wait. The only expense is $5.00 so that we have a poker-pot at the end of the run. If you complete the questions and aquire all the items you will receive a 6th card at the BBQ to “help” your hand. For members not wanting to join in the Poker Run, We cordially invite you to enjoy the BBQ at 3 p.m. on the Llincoln property in Tofield. Bring along your collapsable chair and “hopefully” your sun tan lotion…maybe some bug spray and enjoy yourself. Soft drinks, water, hot dogs, hamburgers and salads are all provided. Directions to the picnic site will be provided in future newsletters. Hope to see you there!

Super Run 2018 will be held in Red Deer, July 30th to August 5th. Traditionally a fairly good sized group of us go down for the festivities on Thursday, Friday, and the show on Saturday and Sunday. A good sized group of us are staying at the Red Deer Western Budget Hotel #2 for any members who want to stay there and get to know your fellow cruisers. There may still be some rooms left. The phone number is 403-347-2177. Registration for Super Run is open and can be done online at www.rocknreddeer.com/.. If you think you might want to go down earlier, there are a number of event cruises happening from Monday on. There is no charge for them but you need to sign up as some of the events are limited in the number of cars that can participate. Registration is limited to 750 vehicles and the Friday evening downtown cruise is super cool. If you haven’t been to a Super Run, you should take the opportunity to take this in. YOUR CAR, IN A MUSIC VIDEO? There is a Country music video being filmed at Johnny's Store out in Namao and they are looking for some cool/interesting/hotrod cars to fill in the background. The details are... It's at Johnny's Store in Namao for basically all day. It's THIS Sunday (Fathersday). You can drop your car off, or stick around all day. If you are interested in being part of this and want more details, please call Irma at 780-266-2529 or email [email protected]. For those of you who aren’t familiar with the location, this is the old store on Highway 37 just east of Highway 28.
