Cade's Cruise - Campbell River

We recently heard about VI Cruiser Bill Burnette’s grandson “Cade” who lives in Campbell River and wanted all his daycare friends to join him for his 4th Birthday Party this month. Then this Covid Pandemic created a shutdown of all Happy Birthday gatherings. However, that doesn’t stop us VI Cruise Cultists, living in the general area of mid to northern island, from getting out in our rides to bring smiles to a 4 year old who is Car Crazy. There are over 9 vehicles locally that have already committed to “Birthday Honking Cade.” Maybe some of you would enjoy a drive from points north or south or within Campbell River in your special ride and get a smile on while making Cade’s birthday wish come true.

If the above socially responsible activity is of interest to you, then here’s all the SCOOP!.......

• The “Drive-By” is scheduled for April 25th
• Start Time is 10:30 am
• Staging location is off Jubilee Parkway in Campbell River
• Location area is Erickson Road at Owen Road with….
• …roadside signs in place to direct you to the exact staging area which is on Ericson near the Shell Station just off the Old Island Highway.

Easy Peasey, however….

• Here’s a general directions Google Maps link: https://goo.gl/maps/rdg6AopJrwoguTqv6
• Participants are requested to arrive at the staging area before 10:30 AM and stay in their vehicles or observe social distancing pandemic rules of 6 feet.
• Please confirm attendance and send an e-mail to Bill at e-mail 'William Burnett' mooneyes53@gmail.com so he may keep everyone advised of plans.

If anyone needs more information, please contact Bill at telephone 250-607-8511 or by email at mooneyes53@gmail.com

We know it’s a long drive but they will very much welcome any of the mid-islanders who would like to come along for a day out and provide a Big Birthday boost to young Cade’s day in this special circumstance that will become a life memory for him. If you know anyone that would like to share in this activity, please share this note. Keep on Cruisin & Stay Safe! Art
