shelby tom Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 The are some of the area Cruise Night Locations in 2007 that "usually" carry right over but you should check to make sure and please post updates if you get them! --------------------------------------- FYI, Crystal Lake canceled their cruise after the 2006 season...too many juvenile problems I am told...haven't heard that it has been reinstated. Also, not sure if it is Arlington Heights or Rolling Meadows, but there is a monster cruise-in at the Meijers parking lot on Golf and Algonquin road every friday...and they are starting already this coming Fri 4/18, also if you havee a pre-1978 car, the Dog&Suds in Round Lake has an awesome cruise in every Saturday night, complete with car hop service (post 1978 cars can park accross street) And, for what it's worth, not all of these cruise-ins allow cars post-1978 (i.e., Mundelein Park on park).
