I hope that you are doing well. We are a little more than 5 weeks away from the first event, May 9, 2009 Kelly's Bleachers event. I am starting taking roll call for this event so if you plan on coming, please respond to this message. The plan for the May 9 Kelly's Bleachers Event is to meet at the Big Bend Park & Ride Lot in New Berlin (Waukesha County park and ride lot 67-15) by 3:45 PM. We will be departing no later than 4:00 PM. The event will end at Kelly's Bleachers II in Wind Lake for dinner, a baked chicken and sliced roast beef buffet with green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, salad, and bread / rolls for $20 dollars per person (Including gratuity). I will have the parking lot blocked off like we did last year and the year before so only people in the event can park.
Looking forward to seeing everyone on May 9, 2009. More to come.
I think I will be going to this. It is a ton of fun and isn't an ordinary leisurely drive through the country. It is a challenge to keep up with some of these guys. Trust me, there are some nice cars there. With a Mazdaspeed you will almost feel outclassed...almost ;-).

The first event is one week away. May 9, 2009 at 3:45 PM - Kelly's Bleachers Cruise and Dinner. Currently, we have over 140 people that I am aware (meaning I have emails for) that will be joining (Listed at the bottom of this email). Please let me know if you are going to attend by replying to this email (if you have not done so already) . If I missed listing you, I apoogize and please let me know that as well. Please feel free to invite others from your respective forums as well. My goal is to get to 200 cars for this event. Hopefully, we can get there.
For those individuals that are coming from the south (Kenosha, Racine, and Illinois), the meeting spot to cruise to the park & ride lot is at the Iron Skillet located at 717 S Sylvania Avenue, Sturtevant, WI 53177. Please be at the Iron Skillet inbetween 2:45 PM and 3:00 PM. Promptly at 3:00 PM, my friend Tony D (Ford GT), Mike F (Ford GT), and Theo M (Blown C5 Z06) will lead the way to the Big Bend Park & Ride Lot. Please let me know if you will be meeting up at the Iron Skillet to cruise to the park & ride.
For those individuals coming from the Madison area, please be at the West Town Mall in the JC Penny Parking Lot i(NE Side) inbetween 1:25 PM and 2:00 PM. The group will be leaving promptly at 2:00 PM. If you have any questions - email Jared at jlaughli@gmail.com.
Please make sure you have a full tank of gas (Not that you will go through it all). The cruise is roughly 75 miles through the back roads. It is the same exact route that was taken before. Mike F (Ford GT) and I took the route this past weekend, and their is no construction on the route.
Obviously, I will be monitoring the weather the week of May 9, 2009 to ensure that the weather is going to be nice. More to come and I look forward to catching up with everyone.
Best Regards,
Joel Gawronski

First - I want to thank everyone who participated in the May 9, 2009 Cruise to Kelly's Bleachers II. It was a fun event, a lot of really beautiful cars of all makes and models, and good food. What a route Mike C put together for the run - Thanks Mike.
I also wanted to share the pictures that were taken from the May 9, 2009 cruise. I hope that everyone had a good time and met new friends. Again, I want to thank everyone who participated in this event.
The next event is scheduled on Sunday, May 31, 2009 at Great Lakes Drag way. Please check out the event flyer - Click here to view show flyer. This event should be a lot of fun and bring the old muscle, new muscle, exotics and rat rods all together to help Yoosef. More on the event from Wisconsin Hot Rod Radio - http://www.wisconsinhotrodradio.com/. Combined, we are trying to get to 500 plus cars to help raise money and this will be a car show and allow you to take your car on the track should you want to do so (You will have to pay an extra fee to race on the track).
If you have additional photos of the May 9, 2009 Cruise to Kellys Bleachers II that you would like me to share, please email then to me and I will add to the links below. Thanks again to everyone for taking pictures and sharing with the group.
