“Cruising on Menno Street” was the theme of an outdoor event staged by Vineland United Mennonite Church on Aug. 12.

Many restored and polished vintage cars were on display in the church parking lot. Cars were labelled with the name, year, special features and owner’s name. Automobile owners answered visitors’ questions and even gave a few rides.

Due to COVID-19, the church’s Intergeneration Event Planning Team had not hosted a community event for a few years. People from the church and the community brought their lawn chairs and sat around in the church parking lot eating burgers, sweet corn and ice cream; visiting; checking out the cars; and enjoying each other’s company.
