When GM Was the Leader

It's Thursday and this evening from 6 p.m. till dusk the Hyde Park Lions Club is hosting the second Country Cruizin' evening at Steve Plunkett's Fleetwood Farms. The nights are free, with optional donations going to the Special Abilities Riding Institute in Arva, which offers horseback riding to children with disabilities. Expect to see several hundred cars, mostly beautiful Detroit iron such as this heritage Cadillac, but there are always a few foreign cars, too. If all this sounds interesting, visit http://www.countrycruizin.com for directions and more details.

Donations are optional but greatly appreciated with the money raised going to the Special Abilities Riding Institute in Arva, which offers horseback riding to children with disabilities.
