Cars & Caves Returns Saturday Plus Tuesday Samaritan Tire plus other info!

 

All good News - 

 

  We are going to get together again tomorrow night (May 25th) at Samaritan Tire in Hopkins.  They close at 6:00 so in order to avoid customer traffic in the parking lot, don't arrive too early. 

Rest rooms will be open but no food, so bring you own or eat before. 

Hope to see you there!
