Update 7/6/2010 – Man, this page gets a lot of views. I didn’t realize so many people searched for BBQ!!!

This month�s club meeting will be combined with a club BBQ at Johnny Perry�s home/camp on June 20th. We�ll take this time to discuss the Cruisin� Southern Style at the Paragon show coming up in November.

We ask that each club member bring a dish, desert and/or drink, while the club will provide the chicken, sausage, and boudin.The cooking will start at 3:00 with dinner being served at 7:00.

We look forward to seeing everyone there.

This month’s club meeting will be held April 21st at Rocky’s Tails and Shells in Bunkie, La. Try to make it around 6:00 PM. We’ll be well into crawfish season by then so be ready to shell a few tail!!!  Anyone interested in joining the club should attend. I’ll have club shirts available if you let me know in advance.

Agenda:  Upcoming shows, Alexandria Cruise-In at Sonic near the mall, and Club Cruises in the Country.

I would like to thank everyone who braved the chilly weather to attend the 2009 show this past weekend. We were blessed to have a beautiful, although cold, day to share our love for this hobby.  Please check back as I’ll be updating this post with the total money raised for the “I Wish Foundation”.

The 2008 Cruisin’ Southern Style car show has come and gone. We had 116 registered vehicles at the show this year. Thirteen club member’s cars and many cars that did not register gave us a total of nearly 140 vehicles. Every car, truck, and even motorcycle in the show was awesome. The weather was great: sunny blue skies with the temperature in the low 70s made being outside enjoyable.

As always, the burnout competition was the event highlight. There had to be at least 500 people around the barricades watching our six entrants smoke down their tires. There are plenty of pictures of the burnout in the gallery below.

Here’s the winner of the burnout:

The Southern Style Cruisers classic car club would like to thank everyone who took the time to bring their cars out for this show. We want to thank all the people who stopped in to enjoy viewing the cars. And finally, we want to thank all the sponsors that donated door prizes, money, or prizes. I will be putting a complete list of sponsors here in the next week along with a total raised for the “I Wish” Foundation!

Take time to check out the 241 photos I took during the show. Feel free to download any picture that you like! If you’re using the photo in any type of literature or website, please link back to www.southernstylecruisers.com.

Once again, a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to everyone who came!!!
