Let’s Go Cruisin’ Cruisers

What's it all about?

We had a number of people approach us about becoming members of LGC. We felt that it wasn't necessary to have more members to perform the work required with our simple approach to our events. But we did see great value in building stronger relationships with car enthusiasts that liked our way of doing things and wanted to get involved a little more. So we developed the Cruiser program. We do the work necessary to put on events, our growing Cruiser population gives us confidence about numbers that may come along, and Cruisers receive extra benefits from subscribing across the year. Put simply, our Cruiser program is aimed at giving you the opportunity to get a little more involved in our activities, without the commitment needed to 'belong to another club' and reward you in various ways for participating in our activities.

By rewards we mean:

• Free entry in the annual Grand Prize draw (see below for the details)
• Free entry to the monthly 'Cruise the Coolstore' cruise night
• Special 'Cruiser only' giveaways at some of our bigger events
• An exclusive range of merchandise for you to wear (click onto Merchandise)
• Deals and discounts on sponsors products and services
• Invite to Cruiser only events

What's involved in becoming a Cruiser?

When signing up as a Cruiser you are not joining another car club. There are no obligations or responsibilities from signing up for a year. The benefits you obtain are directly related to how many of our events you attend, what level of discounted purchases you make from our sponsors, how lucky you are in the prize draws, and how much fun you have at our events!

How much does it cost?

There is no joining fee, just an annual subscription fee of $20.00. Subscriptions fall due on the 30th June each year, there is no pro-rata discount.

What do I get in my new Cruiser pack?

• A Cruiser ID card used to identify you as a Cruiser at our events.
• A Cruiser window sticker for the current year to display on your ride
• Details of our exclusive Cruiser merchandise range
• Information about sponsors deals

How do I join up?

To become a LGC Cruiser is easy, just download a copy of the application form, complete it and bring it along to one of our events and Kerin Duyvestyn will help you process your application and you'll get to go home with your Cruiser pack. Or mail in your application and we'll get you processed and mail back your Cruiser pack. Place the window sticker on your car and your away. If you have more than one car you'd like to bring to our events, just let Kerin know and she'll arrange extra window stickers.

Cruisers without pre '75 cars.

It is not a pre requisite that to join us as a Cruiser subscriber that you own a pre'75 car.

As a Cruiser without a pre '75 car in your garage, you can still enjoy the many of the benefits we offer, including discounts from our sponsors, free lucky entrant's ticket at our monthly Cruise Night, entry in special Cruiser prize draws at our bigger events. However, if the car you come along in, does not meet our pre '75 entry guidelines, please understand that your Cruiser status does not guarantee the entry of your car to that event.

We will attempt to provide you when possible with priority parking, such as at monthly Cruise Nights, where you can enter to reserved parking area for entrant's cars, but you'll be directed to park in the paddock area. We would appreciate your co operation with this request.
If at any time of your Cruiser subscription year, you become dissatisfied with how we classify your car for event entry, you can request and will receive a full refund of your year's subscription.
