Hoosier Cruisers

PLANNED ACTIVITIES

HOOSIER CRUISER’S RALLY SEPTEMBER 17^TH TO 20^TH

ALLEN COUNTY FAIRGROUNDS

2726 CARROLL ROAD

FORT WAYNE, IN  46818

THURSDAY 9/17

Check-in and setup will be 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.  Social hour will be from 4:00 – 5:30.

Anyone that wants to, will leave at 5:40 PM to arrive at 6:00 PM for dinner at Golden Corral in a reserved banquet room.

FRIDAY 9/18

There will be a pitch in breakfast at 8:00 AM.

 The rest of the day, you can choose your activities, like shopping at Glenbrook Square Mall, Jefferson Point Mall or Northcrest Mall.

 Other suggestions are to trace your family tree at the downtown public library.  This is one of the best genealogy research locations in the country.  Other interesting places to visit are the Botanical Gardens in downtown Fort Wayne and the Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo.

6:00 PM a catered Italian meal will be provided in a room at the fairgrounds.  We believe the menu will be chicken parmesan with spaghetti and lasagna for people who don’t care for chicken parmesan.  Salad, breadsticks and desert will also be provided.

7:00 PM  we will have a business meeting and Election of Officers.

SATURDAY 9/19

Breakfast will be on your own.  The Johnny Appleseed Festival starts for Saturday and Sunday.  There are many foods to choose from and vendors to visit there for purchases of those must have items.  Parking is, I believe, $5.00, so you might want to group up to save money on parking.

Another interesting tour that is free is Saint Francis College.  The highlight of the tour will probably be seeing the old Bass Mansion that is now an administrative building.  This was built by John Bass, a foundry mogul, around the turn of the 20^th century.  The time for this tour is 9:00 AM to noon.
