Avon Park August 2025 Show Slide Show

Greetings Cruisers,
   On August 16, 2025, we had a small car show in the Historical District of Avon Park as part of the Jet Ski Races on Lake Verona. We did our best NOT to talk about the heat, but YES, it was HOT! 

However, with the streets blocked off, food vendors, and Rock’n Roll music, everywhere you looked, there were smiles and smiles. And lots of doggies, too!

Given that the show was 23 miles north of our Lake Country Cruisers car show home at the Lake Placid American Legion, of the 40 cars in attendance, over half were cars and trucks we typically don’t see here in Lake Placid. It was fun seeing new-to-us machines.

And a big THANKS to James “Pappy” Wright for organizing the Car Show!

Here are a few photos…

Our next Lake Country Cruisers Car & Bike Show will be on Saturday, October 11, 2025, from 11 am to 1:30 PM.

See you are Legion Post 25! Until then, Y’all stay cool! – Scott, Pete, & Ron
