Welcome to the web page of the Still Cruisin' car club. There are no officers, dues or meetings.  We are just a group of people who love to get together with others who share our interest in classic cars.  Our home cruise is Bonnie Doon Drive-In on Lincoln Way near Ironwood.  We meet every Sunday of  the year.  From May till September or until the weather gets to cold our favorite DJ -  WJOEpm (Joe Carroll) -  plays our favorite rock and roll tunes from his music booth from 5 until 8 PM on weekend cruise-ins and 6 PM to 8 PM on weeknights.

                             *** Bonnie Doon open! ***

Good crowd at the first official  cruise of the season at Bonnie Doon. Saw some faces we hadn't seen since

last fall. With temperatures near 90 it seemed more like the middle of summer.  WJOE was there spinning the music.  Those first Bonnie burgers of the season taste so good! :-)

Be sure to check out the comments at the bottom the page.  Thank you to all for keeping us up to date with

new car cruise-in dates.  Much appreciated.

Chic-fil-a restaurant will be having a morning car show on Saturday, June 9.  Time 10 AM till 2. 

Door prizes, dash plaques and music by WJOEpm.
