Invitation to Cruise In

The Sunshine Coast Mustangers (SCM) are having a cruise in at Tim Hortons here in Sechelt starting this Thursday July 30th and every Thursday through the end of August, weather permitting, at 7:00 p.m. for an hour or so to enjoy a coffee, a snack and some company with friends.

 

If there are any members of the Coasters Car Club who would like to join us for this get together, they are more than welcome. It is not limited to Mustangs only. I have spoken to the owner of this Sechelt Tim Hortons and his Manager and they have no issues with us showing up. Ron Walsh met up with a few Coasters in the Sechelt coffee shop this morning and mentioned it to them and those he spoke to were interested in participating so we wanted to get the word out to your members who may be interested.

 

The SCM would ask that those who do attend to please abide by the first item of our SCM Motto which is to Respect Your Car, the Environment and the Laws. Also, as we are all cognizant of I am sure, due to the COVID19 pandemic, social distancing and or the wearing of masks is imperative to keep everyone safe.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT, EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTORS

We the executive and directors of the Coasters Car Club have discussed and decided due to Covid-19 to cancel the Sleepy Hollow Rod Run and Car Show this year.  As we rely on so many businesses for donations and trophies where many have not worked for so long not knowing if they will even be able to reopen?   The decision was made to cancel for 2020.

Be Safe and Let’s get through this in unison
