Cruise the Bay Thank You from Jack & Judy
Calling All Rodders,
A Special Thank You from Jack & Judy!
The 2009 Cruise the Bay season has come to an end. The thank you notes are being mailed to our sponsors, our Make A Wish donation is in the mail and of course thoughts and plans are starting up for 2010. But first we want to give a little 2009 summary report.
Cruise the Bay 2009 saw numerous changes - the biggest being that Cruise the Bay became a community car event with no club affiliation. This change opened the door to bringing lots of volunteers to help this event to continue to grow. THANK YOU ONE AND ALL!!! - We saw some new parking changes smoothly go into effect – again thanks to all who helped implement them and to all who went with the flow and followed them.
And of course we saw the Calling All Rodders website become our official voice – helping everyone see and hear about all the fun they had experienced on Monday night and drawing in more helpers, cruisers and spectators.
The summer saw the following statistics go down in the books. We had 18 cruises, saw nearly 5000 cars visit us over the summer that is an average of 275 cars per night. Our 50/50 has enabled us to send an $1100 donation to the Erie Area Make A Wish Foundation. We were blessed with 11 perfect evenings -gorgeous Erie weather with some beautiful sunsets, 2 actual rain mode evenings & if you are one of the diehard cruisers you know what that means, 4 nights that saw rain in and around the area, but even those nights averaged 100 cars, and 1 night where everyone but me (Judy Miller) said it was just too darn hot!!
Again thank you to everyone who cruised in, sold and bought 50/50 tickets, handed out door prize tickets, gave out our sometimes silly cruiser gifts, helped with and or participated in the various contests, cleaned up, set up, promoted – you get the idea. THANK YOU!!! one and all for helping to make the 2009 Cruise the Bay season a fun and enjoyable time for all of us.
Take care and hope to see you in the spring.
Sincerely,
Jack & Judy Miller
