Cruise-Town Erie is a success!

Calling All Rodders,

Thank You for supporting the 1st Cruise-Town Erie of the season. It is important for all to know how important these cruises are to our community. And a Special Thanks to George Lyons of Contemporary Motors for your sponsorship to keep this event in Erie.

With that said, although the air was chilly many people filled State Street to enjoy the evening fun. All winter long we have been polishing and preparing for the cruise season to start. And they came out in groves!! State Street was line up and down with cars of every shape size and kind.

Parking was to start at 6pm but many cruisers were there by 4pm. The Police had them parking by 5:30pm. This gave the downtown workers time to get on their way home before State Street was blocked off. Please follow the rules in parking to ensure that we continue to have these events. No Parking in the crosswalks as all East & West streets stay open and thru traffic will still be coming and going. Please No Parking in front of the Fire Hydrants. All parking will be filled down each side of the street before parking in the middle begins. Once the blocks are full and there are no more parking spaces available, the police will have to turn you away, so plan accordingly. Thank you to all who obeyed these rules. The safety of all involved is the primary concerned of our Police Department.

This event draws in car enthusiasts from all around the area not just Erie. It is great way for the public to visit our downtown area. Great job organizers, and cruisers and spectators.
This is only the first of three events scheduled for this season. The next will be in July followed by another in Sept. Mark your calenders and make sure you are there!
