Subject: Daytona Beach Dream Cruise “Fun & Free Collector Car Event“ Oct. 23-24-25, 2009

Hello! Please make your fellow club members aware of a terrific, big, free event that's enjoyable for all auto enthusiasts. In its first year, 2008, the Daytona Beach Dream Cruise had nearly 1,200 special cars and trucks participating. Based on great buzz from last year, there'll be even more participants this year. More fun activities are planned for 2009 and procedures are being streamlined to enhance everyone's experience.
The 2nd Annual Daytona Beach Dream Cruise is coming Fri., Sat. & Sun., Oct. 23, 24 & 25, 2009. It is being held at multiple venues throughout the Daytona Beach area. Times and places of official event activities are shown on the Schedule of Events page of www.DaytonaBeachDreamCruise.com . These activities are free for drivers and occupants of participating collector cars (all years are eligible) and for the general public. There are no vehicle registration fees and no admission fees at official event activities. We recommend taking in as many activities as your time allows. It's fine if you can only attend one or two days. You get to choose which activities to enjoy day or night, and you can be a participant or spectator.
Friday Oct. 23rd - Noon Kickoff Plus Late Afternoon & Evening Gathering Featuring Musical Entertainment and a Terrific Movie of Historic Auto Racing on the Area's Beach, at the Beachfront Bandshell. This is all free and participating special cars will be allowed to park immediately adjacent to the Bandshell on the Boardwalk and in Oceanfront Park. See web site for details.
Saturday Oct. 24th Check-in of Participating Vehicles at the Volusia Mall (1700 W. International Speedway Blvd). Show up at the northeast corner of the parking lot behind Sears between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. There is no need to register in advance. However, by registering for free online before the Daytona Beach Dream Cruise, owners will receive helpful email updates leading up to the event.
Saturday Oct. 24th - Free Photo of Each Special Car at Check-in. As part of this email you'll see the flyer for the 2nd Annual Daytona Beach Dream Cruise. Scroll down and notice the three photos. Again this year, we'll give a free digitally-enhanced photo, similar to these 2008 samples, of each collector car that comes to check-in between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. at the northeast corner of the Volusia Mall parking lot. In addition, we'll make available free of charge the high resolution image of each of these digitally enhanced photos for everyone to use as they wish. You'll love this nice free keepsake.
