Tonka Cruzers Car Club Member's car in wedding

Tom Veilleux provided his 1962 Buick Skyark convertible for an Excelsior wedding this month in Excelsior! Was a great day for a ride from Church to the wedding reception!  

Rick Meyer sent out the call for a vintage convertible to be used for his neighbor's wedding and Tom was able to provide it as well as chauffeur. Tom is also a photographer that produced a 2013 calendar featuring Excelsior vintage cars from the 7-Hi Cruisers club in and around Excelsior, MN and Lake Minnetonka.

Tonka Cruzers Aug 31, 2013

All,

Well another Tonka Cruzers Car Club season almost under our belt [6th season]… have been lucky with no rain-outs due to my superior scheduling [Ha, ha!].

Thank you sincerely to all that have come and displayed/shared their cars with the general public and other car folk at the Car Show – always something to learn by chatting with each other.

NOTE: August 31^st was supposed to be the last Car Show of the season.

But wait, the good news is I have been asked to do one more on Sept 7^th during Apple Day on that Saturday. This is great news is for those that come that day [with Collector Cars] will have a prime parking at my Show to be able to check out Apple Day on a day that parking is hard to find.

I have changed the hours slightly to 10 to 2 so take note, this is a great opportunity for all of you and I would love to see a huge turnout of your Rides.

Apple Day celebrates [since 1929] the Apple Orchards that used to be in the area and is a big event.  Check – Excelsior-LakeMinnetonkaChamber.com for more information.

The Flea Market by the theatre will also be run that day with vendors that are bound to have something you can’t live without so be sure to visit the Excelsior Flea Market that day.  

Sincerely,

Rick Meyer [612] 750-6917

Additional Car Show Date Added for 9/7/13 during Excelsior's Apple Day!

Both events - Tonka Cruzers Car Club and Excelsior Flea Market - will operate on 9/7/13

The Tonka Cruzers Car Show will have its Excelsior Cruze-In on Excelsior's Apple Day, Sept 7. The Show Hours are 10:00am to 2:00pm!  8,000 people are expected to be in Excelsior that day for Apple Day, so plan on bringing your collector car to the car show for a choice parking spot and chance to view collector cars!  We'll also be operating the Excelsior Flea Market on September 7 as well - that is open from 9:00 to 3:00 at Water St and Lake St (10 Water Street, Excelsior MN 55331).





Excelsior Cruze In Tonka Cruzers Car Club August 17

Thank you all for coming to my Car Show the 17^th in Excelsior and over the summer - love all your cars. It is always great to see "new" Cars and Faces and talk to you about your rides!

 

I was only supposed to have 1 more show but have been asked to do a Show on “Apple Days” in Excelsior Sept 7th [along with the Excelsior Flea MKT]. This is a good deal for the Car Show attendees because it gives you a place to park at the show and go to the Apple Day event at which regular parking is at a premium. 

 

The time at the Sept 7th show will be 10 to 2instead of 9 to 12 by request from the City. So come show off your rides and wander through Excelsior for the festivities!

 

Don't forget the Aug 31st Show at the regular time of 9 to 12.
