Editorial Review of Chi-Town Kruze and Car Show

Date: May 31, 2008

Cost: Free for spectators, $20 per car to join the show

Organizer:

What to expect: A cruise down Lake Shore Drive followed by a car show.

Why to go: The original '70s Stingray from the Mark Hamill movie "Corvette Summer" will be on display.

Additional info: You can join the Kruze at any point between 8 and 10 a.m. The cruise route starts on Columbus near Buckingham Fountain. Cars will follow Columbus Drive south to Roosevelt Road, over to Michigan Avenue to Randolph Street, and then back to Columbus Drive. Cars are encouraged to make multiple loops before heading to the Soldier Field South Lot for the Car Show later in the morning. There will be signs posted telling you where to go and when to turn around.

The Car Show begins at 10 a.m. in the Soldier Field South Parking Lot (at Lake Shore Drive and 18th St.), and all registered cars ($20 a pop, must be pre-1988) must be in by 10:15 a.m. Ford Mustangs get a special section this year. There will be free shuttle bus service for spectators between Grant Park and Soldier Field.

Half of registration fees and all of admission fees go toward the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland. ABC 7's Mark Giangreco will emcee the awards ceremony.
