Default October 19-SE Michigan-Fall Color Tour-New Boston-Saline to Dexter Cider Mill

The weather Sucks! Cruise is cancelled!


The world-famous annual Dexter Cider Mill Cruise is set for Saturday, October 19th.

As usual, we need some more Detroit iron, and this cruise is always, and will continue to be open to the CTS-V Crew!

(I dug up this vintage photo from a previous cruise)





We will gather together for an afternoon of cruising, and hopefully, peak fall colors, with Mother Nature’s cooperation. This cruise will be an all back roads ride through the scenic Michigan countryside. And as always, the caravan will travel in one pack, and no one is left behind to fend for themselves.

Dexter is a very quaint town that resembles Mayberry RFD. During the fall season, there are several festivals going on in the main Town Square.

The Dexter Cider Mill has been in existence for over 100 years, and has the great unfiltered cider we all enjoyed as a kid. The cinnamon doughnuts are greasy and sugary, and they also sell the usual wide fare of apple related items in the store. Here’s the link to their website: http://www.dextercidermill.com/

When we arrive Dexter, we will drive and park as close to or on the property of the cider mill as we can.

Here’s the itinerary:

Cruise In Date: Saturday, October 19th. If it rains, there will be no reschedule date.

Cruise Location Starting Point: Huron High School parking lot. Address: 32044 Huron River Drive, New Boston. (Across the street from Michigan Memorial Park Cemetery. If you need assistance confirming the location, just email me at luvmyc6@comcast.net, Mapquest the address or stop by my house, I'm just a stone's throw away from Huron High School! )

Mingle Time/Assembly of Caravan/Line Up of Cars: 1:00 pm. If it's cold outside, I will be providing coffee and hot chocolate (I can't believe I just said THAT!)

Depart for Cruise:1:30 pm. If we have stragglers, and someone is running late because of traffic problems, or you are lost, please call me on my cell at 313-220-4949, and we’ll accommodate you if the wait isn’t too long!

Stop for lunch at Mac's Acadian Seafood

End Rally Point: The Dexter Cider Mill. (which closes at 6:00 pm on Saturdays in October)

Hope to see you there!

Fear not fair maiden, I still sneak a peak over here.

I will pass the Vord (See what I did there) We have a MotownMuscle Milan Drag Strip rental Oct 18th so it should get lots of attention.

I'm pretty sure we will represent for this great event.

Thanks Suz

Good to see the date is set. Verna and I will be back from the Smokies by then so count us in. A few east siders wanted me to take them to Irish Hills sometime in October. Can I invite them for your cruise? Might be 8-10 Corvettes.

Larry, no need to ask....the more the merrier I say! Just need to know how many bodies will be showing up so I can add that number to my reservation at Mac's Acadian Seafood.

Glad you and Verna can make it and attend an event where you just get to kick back and relax and not have to worry about a thing!

Went to this two years ago and had a blast. SO much fun screaming away from the four-way stops ... one car after the other. Great lunch and great pastries at the cider mill when we finished. Thanks for allowing us "four-door Vettes" along for the ride.
