Cruizin' on Thursday, August 06th

28 posts in this topic

Posted (edited) · Report post

I've again been able to confirm Smart Cars as the featured participant at the weekly Hyde Park Lions Club Charity Cruiz'in at Steve Plunkett's Fleetwood Farms estate, 9282 Elviage Drive, London (really Lambeth, for those of us in the know).

It runs from about 6 PM to dusk on Thursday August 06, 2015.

Lions Club cooks up burgers and hot dogs, and pop is available, all for charity.

Tickets are available for prizes along with a 50/50 draw.

A donation to charity is requested per car on entering the grounds. Once again, everything goes to charity.

I requested that the Smart cars be allowed to ring the pond again as in years past, offering some great photo opportunities.

This weekly event is weather dependant, so check this thread before you set out.

I'll post confirmation of the show here one way or the other as soon as I receive it.

Let's hope we have another sunny day and another big turnout.

The more, the merrier!

Participants can plan to meet up in Lambeth at the Foodland parking lot between 5 and 5:30 and then leave as a group. Note your interest in this plan in the sign-up area below.

Click here to see some of the cars that were there from 2014. Click here for pictures from the 2013 event. We run between 15 and 20 cars at this event, but the more, the merrier!

Just wanted to avoid any confusion.

London's weather forecast for Thursday, as of 4PM Tuesday.....

Mix of sun and cloud, high of 25, low of 14 with only 10% POP

Looks like great late summer weather for a charity car show.

Hope to see at least as many people with Smart cars as we've seen in the past.

I plan to get there between 5 and 5:30, if for no other reason than to get a good spot in the food lineup.

See y'all there !!

Are you going to skip the meet up in Lambeth at the Foodland parking lot between 5 and 5:30? :)

I think it would be best if we all met at Plunketts. It's hard to keep even 6 smarts together.

We, as a group were originally thinking of showing up around 6 pm, but there is no set time for individuals to show. It seems that some members will be showing up earlier. Please come when (if) you can. We should be easy to find since we will be parked around the pond as usual.

The show runs until dusk.

See you there :)

What a great event !!

Best night of my life..... well, maybe best night of the week..... well, so far anyway.

Terrific weather, lots of nice cars, great people, 13 Smart cars and, oh ya, I won the 50/50 draw.

I hope someone has photos to post showing the Smarts ringing the pond on the Plunkett estate.

There were great photo ops of our group as well as lots of nice old and newer cars.

Organizers told me they had a turnout of almost 300 vehicles.

They also told me they're looking forward to our Smart group returning again next year.

I 'loosely' reserved Thursday, August 04, 2016 for our annual participation (how's that for forward thinking?).

Oh, and did I mention I won the 50/50 draw. :)

Congratulations on the 50/50 win Bill! I guess we know who's buying at the next meet :winkgrin:

I only managed to get one photo this year because I spent most of my time chatting with Plunkett Estate visitors who were interested in our choice in cars. Unfortunately, the photo was taken before everyone had arrived.
