West Reading Avenues Fall 2017 - 11

Not everyone was thrilled, primarily because of preconceived
ideas of what a "cruise" was. But a core group was willing to try
it, and we chose a Thursday night in October of 2014 for the
inaugural event.
With next to no advertising, we had about 60 cars attend that
first event. We had placed an ad in an issue of Cruise News and
Terry had made copies of it and had done a lot of promoting
at area cruises, but his effort was about the extent of our advertising initiative.

WHEN CLEAN
MATTERS MOST!

It was at that point that we knew we had a winner. Everyone
who attended was enthusiastic about the venue and encouraged us to continue the event. While we were pleased with that
first year, Terry and I both knew that we needed to change to a
weekend event, but we didn't want to compete with any of the
long-standing cruises already in place. With some trepidation, we
settled on Saturday of Labor Day weekend as a permanent event
date, proof once again, that it's better to be lucky than good!
The second year attracted about 100 cars and proved that we'd
made a good decision about the date. But our biggest stroke of
good fortune came with Bob Fisher Chevrolet contacting us about
being our lead sponsor for the 2016 Cruise. I can't say enough
good things about the Fisher organization. They have given us
the ability to take this event to the next level and beyond.
The 2016 Cruise attracted 150 cars and significantly more
pedestrian traffic, which is key to making the Cruise sustainable
as a major WRCRF Event. To that end, we've added another
block for 2017, so the Cruise will occupy the 500, 600 and 700
blocks of Penn Avenue. Initial indications are that we'll fill all
three blocks this year!
