32nd CRUISE DOWN MEMORY LANE RETURNS TO DOWNTOWN VINELAND JUNE 8

A Tradition of Over a Quarter Century
Organized by Main Street Vineland in Cooperation with CDML Event Committee

VINELAND, NJ—Millions of dollars worth of vintage and exotic cars will again line Landis
Avenue as Cruise Down Memory Lane returns to downtown Vineland—The Ave—on Saturday,
June 8, from 5 to 9 p.m. The rain date will be Sunday, June 9, from 5 to 9 p.m.

Main Street Vineland will be organizing this annual Vineland tradition, now in its 32nd year, in
cooperation with the Cruise Down Memory Lane Committee.

Accelerated Transport is the major sponsor of this event, and Newfield National Bank is the Plaque
Sponsor and RK Chevrolet is the Automotive Sponsor. We are grateful to all of our sponsors
who made this event such a great success. Additional sponsorship opportunities are available.
More information may be found on the Event Page.

This event attracts over 1,000 American cars—over one mile of cars—and is open to street rods,
muscle cars, stock or custom classics, rat rods, and cruisers.

The gates will open for participating cars at 3 p.m. at West Avenue and East Avenue and all
participating vehicles must enter through the gate. The cars will remain parked for display when
the event starts at 5 p.m. Cruising will start at 8 p.m. and all traffic laws will be enforced. The
event is open to American marque cars only. They must be 1974 or older, unless it is a highly
modified late-model or a car entering with a legitimate car club. No motorcycles, bikes, foreign
cars, or partially-primed vehicles will be allowed. Period correct cars are allowed upon approval.
Admission is subject to the Cruise Down Memory Lane staging and gate personnel. Ineligible
vehicles will be towed away at the owner’s expense. No special parking arrangements and no
alcoholic beverages will be allowed. Any car club entry must enter the gates with their club.

“Thousands of people—classic car buffs and people just out to have some fun—all love this
longtime Vineland tradition which brings back the days of muscle cars, chrome, and fins,” said
Main Street Vineland Executive Director Russell Swanson. “We’re proud of this iconic
event—which has been going strong for almost three decades and which draws people to
Vineland from all over and make our downtown a true summer destination for fun events.”

“We’re proud of this long-standing event which has made The Ave a destination for so many.”
said Swanson. “Come out and have a great time!”
