The American Reflections Car Club thanks all of you car nuts for a great year of car stuff. In 1999 we had our show in Moxee on another rainy, windy, day and the car count was down after we had planned a great show for everyone. BUT, that's the way these things happen sometimes. It was our 19th annual show, celebrating our 19th year as a club, held on the 19th of May in the year 2019. We thought that was pretty special. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTS US.
We also co sponsored the Hot Rods and Motorcycles event at the Burger Broiler this past year. We almost tripled their sales for a late Friday afternoon. So our Burger Broiler Manager was promoted and transferred to another location leaving the restaurant with a new and less than enthusiastic manager. On one of the event Fridays there was a conflict between management and some of the car people and so, the car people took the event to the Stop and Go on Fruitvale.
Stop and Go on Fruitvale has always been car friendly place but shortly after the Friday night cruise in was established, the restaurant burned. Now they are frantically working on a restoration to get up and running again.
GREAT THINGS ARE IN STORE FOR US IN 2020.
If you are a car person or even know a car person, get ready yourself and tell them to do so as well. Our 20th annual car show has been cancelled for the year 2020. We were planning on adding more advertising and a SWAP MEET to the show, along with everything else that has made our show great in the past, but due to the spreading of the Coronavirus and the possibility of adding to the problem, our show has been cancelled.
I would like to publicly thank Mr. Dick Shill for he has been working on something that could be one of the greatest successes since the Selah Cruise days. In lieu of the partial demise of the hot rods and harleys event, he has been contacting restaurants snd other interested parties in the Yakima Fruitvale area. Including Dennys, Sheris, Sweet Bees, The Ranch and more setting up a Friday night event for 2020. With all restaurants involved in this hotrod event up and down the boulevard, then a cruise would definitely be in order.
EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT 6-9PM, MAY THROUGH SEPTEMBER.
Then on Saturday morning you can get your day started with "Cars and Coffee". now being held at Dennys on Fruitvale from 7AM to 9AM.
Along with these privileges come a warning as with anything else. Those who do burnouts and show off excessively, park in un-designated areas, or disrespect any of the businesses along this route could possibly ruin it for all of us. So, lets be cognizant of our actions.
I am also currently working on the 2020 car show listing that I do each year for those of you who are interested in area car shows.

Due to the possibility of spreading the Coronavirus, our car show has been cancelled. Stay tuned for new up-coming events this year.
