Cruise-In

They came from all over to enjoy the beautiful hot rods, antiques and specialty vehicles at the annual Mill Lake Cruies-In Saturday.

There were prizes, trophies, food vendors and live entertainment and everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. To top it of, the weather was perfect.

With proceeds going to the Abbotsford Arts Council and the Kariton Gallery, this year’s show had more cars and more people than any other year.

Abbotsford Today contributor Bas Stevens was there to take a few pictures which he was kind enough to share with us and our readers.

Bas Stevens lives in downtown Abbotsford and shares the neighbourhood just as readily with his neighbours with homes as he does with the homeless, the drug addicted and others who are down on their luck.

Bas has a home and is known to most in the power structure in Abbotsford as a man who calls things as he sees them and is very involved in his community and the political process which guides it.

You can find him most Wednesday nights over at Jubilee Park during The 5 and 2 Ministries meal for the homeless. Failing that, you catch him either at Legal Grounds Coffee House chewing the ear off of a politician or giving as good as he gets over at O’Neill’s Home Cooking over on Gosling.

You stand a good chance of finding him Saturday mornings over at the Abbotsford Farm and Country Market and Saturday evenings back over at Jubilee Park.

Wherever he is Bas usually has his eyes and ears wide open. We’re proud to have him as a contributor and urge you to get to know him if you give a damn about Abbotsford. You’ll be hard pressed to find anyone who cares more than he does.
