Wealshire Car Show [1 to 3pm] Wednesday July 16, 2014 Bloomington, MN


How do you make a Cruze-In successful - you have Car Folk willing to donate a few hours of their time and display their "Rides" for the pleasure of the Residents of a Assisted Living Memory Care facility.

 We had 13 Collector Cars last year, it doesn't get much better than that! The Car owners reward was seeing the Residents want their picture taken with maybe their car or other with a smile on the Residents face and maybe a memory of a certain car.

 Wealshire has expanded their facility since last year so that means more residents to take in the car show.

Wealshire will  provide a Hot Dog meal for us.

Time 1pm to 3pm – Address  10601 Lyndale Ave So., Bloomington MN 55427


Thank you all for bringing you cars last year and hopefully I can get the cool refurbished City Bus again this year! 

Sincere Thanks,

Rick Meyer[612] 750-6917

 Please note that there is one more such Car Show this year in September please RSVP so let me know if you can attend one or both.

Recent car shows plus fist Tonka Cruzers Excelsior show this Saturday May 31


All,

Car Season is in full swing since we jumped from Winter to Summer with virtually no Spring to speak of. Now it boils down to which Car Show to attend – endless choices!
 
The photos I have attached are of the first ever Eden Prairie High School Car Club car show May 17th. Kudos to EPHS for starting this club and the show was successful with about 70 cars at the show.
 
A variety of cars showed up and I will just comment on a couple photos – Steve Olson’s 1984 Mini Cooper with right hand drive and an automatic transmission. Check out the Car Club jacket that I got a kick with the Car Club name.
 
OK just to mention a couple shows …  like mine….  this Saturday the 31st 9 to noon at the old Mason Motors lot. I have door prizes …. Tickets to the 10,000 Lakes Concours d’Elegance Car Show Sunday at the Lake front Lake Minnetonka -2nd Annual, shirts from the Excelsior Brewery, Gift Certificate from Joey Novas, Gift Certificate for Non-Oxy Gas from Greenwood Market HWY 7 and Christmas Lake rd.
 
Oh ya, Friday – Free Grilled Burger meal and Car Show at Headquarters Machine  & Restoration in New Hope  11 to 1 …. www.HQ-MA.com
 
Lots to do in Excelsior – Brewery opens around noon, your choice of a lot of restaurants, tour boats, ice cream shop and trolley and retail shops to visit so come for my show then visit Historic Excelsior – fun galore!
 
Hope to see you this Saturday

Tonka Cruzers Car Club Blog Update


OK I am still around but very neglectful on a Blog update [last one featuring Gary Berry’s Rolls Royce on frozen Lake MTK in January] but in my defense we have and are super busy!

 The latest was the Cars I got for International School of MTK Play Bye-Bye Birdie … minimal Cars but maximum fun! Had the Cars on display before the play and after the play with the cast members present for pictures with the Cars. I will not go on and on about the Event but let the photos tell the story.

A HUGE thanks to those who brought their Cars!
 
Next is my Excelsior Car Show for this Summer – same place and times but check the dates on the new flier. The first show will be May 31st the same weekend The Concours d’Elegance which will be on Sunday June 1st.
 
Next is some upcoming Shows I will mention:
 
Eden Prairie High School Car Club is hosting their first ever Car Show on Saturday May 17th at EP High School 8 to Noon – for more information visit www.ephscarclub.weebly.com
 
Youngstedts is hosting the 2nd Annual Chanhassen Charity Car Show in Chanhassen Saturday June 7th – for more information visit www.propfood.org/chanhassen-charity-charity-car-show
 
My Assisted Shows this year will be Wealshire of Bloomington and Minnetonka Assisted only so far as Catholic Elder Care of NE Minneapolis is doing some remodeling so had to cancel this year. Stay tuned for Dates and Times. 

Winter has not been fun so let’s really enjoy our shortened Car Season this year. One casualty of the winter [true story] is that one of the Car Guys couldn’t get his Ride out of storage due to the boats in the storage facility remained in storage  so his car was trapped – yikes! 
 
Last the mystery Mustang in the last picture will have a follow up story eventually and pictures of the build process and description of the Car. 

Be Well and hope to see you at my Show and other Shows
