NOTE : The residents really enjoy stepping back in time and reliving some memories of great cars in their past so please consider participating in one or all of these opportunities to brighten the Residents day by sharing your “Rides” with them.

Only a few hours out of your day but brings back a lifetime of memories for these folks and you will probably hear some great stories from the Residents.

Please RSVP me at Tonkacruzerscarclub@yahoo.com for a Car/Head count so they can plan for lunch/dinner.

Assisted Living Facility Cruze In Date Changed to June 19

06/08/2013 Tonka Cruzers Excelsior Cruze In

The weather was nice a dry and warm for a change for the Tonka Cruzers 2nd car show at the old Mason Motors lot Saturday June 8th. There was a great turnout of 32 [Cars/Trucks/Buses/Pedicabs]

Nice variety of interesting vehicles to enjoy looking at and talking to the proud owners - always fun and learn something new by chatting with them.

There were 13 first timers which always make it interesting and a couple of the local Pedicabs even showed up to introduce themselves and offer rides [payment by tips - no set price].

Next weekend another show and hopefully good weather again - then a Saturday off for "Back to the Fifties" at the State Fair Grounds, can't miss that!!

Anyway a big thanks to the regulars who continue to support my show and great to see the new comers - fun year so far.

I will have a show on Saturday the 29th which isn't listed because I thought we had a wedding to attend but it is on Sunday the 30th. So to entice you to attend it will be the "Door Prize" Show - how fun is that?

Enough for now hope to see a good showing the 15th.
Thanks to everyone,

Rick Meyer

06/08/2013 Tonka Cruzers Car Club Excelsior Cruze In Photos

June 8, 2013 Tonka Cruzers Car Club - Excelsior Cruze In! We had a great day for a car show and were pleased by the turn out of 32 collector cars! Some new cars that we hadn't seen before showed up too.
Plus, we were excited to see two cars that were in last week's 10,000 Lakes Concours d'Elegance! These are very rare cars that you don't see everyday. Thanks to Cub Foods for supplying the donuts and thank you to everyone who came and then visited Excelsior Art on the Lake at the Commons. Below are some of the cars.
