The Cruise the Bay 2009 season has come to an end.

Calling All Rodders,

Jack & Judy have done an excellent job at planning and getting it all organized for our pleasure. A giant Thank you goes out to them from all of us who enjoy this event.

Thank you also to all of you …The Cruisers… who stepped up to the plate and volunteer you time to making this year’s event a success I personally know that Jack & Judy could not have done it without you.

And we can’t forget all the gracious Business Sponsors who gave their time and money each week to bring to the community a place to meet and have fun at a FREE family event in the Erie Area.

Thank you goes out to the Port Authority of Erie, for being patient with us and supporting us in getting the parking and burn outs under control. And thank you to all of you who complied with the new rules to save this event. You showed us how important it was to you, to be able to keep and enjoy this event.

For our listen pleasure and to make sure you knew what was coming up next we have to Thank Bill Mason our DJ for coming each week rain or shine and supplying us with music and announcement.

And where there are Cruisers there are hungry people! Step up to The Weenie Wagon for each week they supplied us with delicious specials at affordable rates. Thanks for being our very own Diner! You did a Great Job !

Now for you the Cruisers who without you we would not have been as successful as we were. Each week Rain or Shine you loaded up your family and came down to the Bayfront. You worked patiently with us thru the parking, the burn outs, and the planned entertainment for that evenings event. We had a lot of fun this summer and saw a lot of Erie’s finest cars and those from the surrounding areas as well.

The community also did a great job in supporting this event. We were filled to capacity most nights., in spite of the weather which always seem to clear up just before the start of the event. But even on those cold rainy nights we had dedicated people to fill the park.

Ron and I took turns supplying you with pictures from that nights fun filled event. They were posted for you to enjoy on the website, www.callingallrodders.com. Thank you Ron for helping me keep up with photos.

We had famous entertainers…Elvis, Marilyn Monroe, Skaters, Hula hoopers, gum chewers, costume wearer, racers, your participation in the fun event planned for each evening provided the entertainment and success of each night.
All in all it was a great summer! And we can’t wait to see what is in store for the 2010 season!

On a personal note I want to thank Jack & Judy for providing me the opportunity to be the web voice for this event. And a big Thank you to Bill Mason for his constant support and help with promoting the website, www.callingallrodders.com. With their help and The Cruise the Bay event it has become a very popular site.

Last Tops Cruise In for the season

Calling All Rodders,

The season is quickly winding down although we still have into October to go. The car cruisin season will soon be over. Everyone is turning out for the last few shows in the area. Tops had the last show for their season tonight and they had a nice turn out.

The Parking lot quickly filled up shortly after 6:00pm. The air was cool but the fun continued and funds were raised for the Children Diabetic Foundation. The people in charge of this show do a great job. And I want to thank them for their hard work and dedication to the cause. They have not had the best weather this year for their cruise but they showed up each event and did the best they could under the conditions and we thank you for your dedication. Next year will only be better and we all look forward to your return in the 2010 Season.

See ya at the next car event!
