44 Years Reunion Show: Easter Rod Run

Come One Come All - Bring Back the Cars, the Fun and the 50/50!

This year we have an opportunity to once again support an event that has been going on for 44 years!   And they need your support as they hold their reunion event this year and invite everyone back for a special event that celebrates their beginnings as possibly the first official car club in Central Florida (and maybe all of Florida)! 

The Russell Home for children, Early Irons and WJBJ would love to have you back to show your amazing vehicles and spend time with good friends.  

We can never forget this show is a reunion for the event but also a way to show our appreciation to the Early Irons for the start they gave to classic cars and cruising in Florida!

They support an amazing organization that helps special kids; the Russell Home for A-typical children and Early Irons throw an event that is very family friendly and fun.  Let's all come back this year to the 44th Annual Easter Run Reunion.

The flyer is now available for this year's Reunion Easter Rod Run at any WJBJ event.

Attention Vette Owners: NCRS UPDATE

WJBJ asks: Did You Know...

NCRS Show Venue Change
NCRS Winter Regionals and Corvettes from all over will be meeting at Sun & Fun grounds in Lakeland this year.  This is a CHANGE IN VENUE from past shows held in Kissimmee.

Although changes have been published by organizers in various magazines, those closest to the action fear cruisers may not be aware of the location change.

Who Can Attend?
The Florida Chapter welcomes the general public with no admission fee for non-NCRS members.  There will also be reserved street rod parking along with Corvettes at no admission. The only fee you will encounter this year if you are not driving a Corvette or airplane is a $5.00 parking fee on Saturday.


Show directions:
Show is located at 4175 Medulla Road, Lakeland, Fl.
The event is positioned on the South West corner of Lakeland Linder Airport.
The best driving exit off of I-4 is exit 25 (County Line Road).
Go South on County line Road to Medulla Rd. (about 3 miles) Turn left on Medulla Rd., which will take you right into the gate of the show.

Traveling by Air?
If you are flying to the show can fly directly into Lakeland Linder Regional Airport and you will be able to taxi and park your aircraft within easy walking distance to the Corvette Show.  No charge for show.
