Hey there, time traveller!

This weekend marks the 25th anniversary of the Fabulous 50’s Ford Club of Manitoba’s annual Flashback Weekend.
The fun kicks off tonight at 8 p.m. with a sock hop social at the Transcona Country Club with live dance band the Dynamics and a silent auction loaded with terrific prizes in support of the Children’s Rehabilitation Foundation.
On Saturday, a car cruise departs from the Garden City Shopping Centre (south parking lot) at 2 p.m. and makes its way to Lockport and the Half Moon Drive In.
The cruise is free to participate in and open to all classic and special-interest vehicles.
On Sunday, the club presents Manitoba’s largest free car show at the Garden City Shopping Centre.
In previous years, more than 1,000 vehicles have been on display, and organizers are anticipating a record-breaking number of vehicles for the 25th anniversary.
Registration is from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and it’s free to register for all classic and special-interest vehicle owners.
The show is also free for spectators and is open from noon to 5 p.m.
Dash plaques will be given away to the first 500 registrants, and there will be class awards for the best cars, a 50/50 draw in support of the Children’s Rehabilitation Foundation, a vendors row featuring companies catering to our massive local car scene and live music from the Russell Lee Band.
Following the big show, hundreds of cruisers will make the drive across town to the Grant Park location of the Pony Corral Restaurant & Bar for the weekly Sunday Night Cruise.
