Every year Santa Cruz Woodies has the opportunity to attend the Goodguys West Coast Nationals show in Pleasanton and park in the special woodie parking area.  When the temperatures are hovering around 100° this is a especially nice area since there are trees which provided some shade and relief from the heat. With over 3,500 cars at this event, there is always …

Those of you who attended Woodies at the Rock 2017 undoubtedly will agree that this year’s event was another great show for the history books.

WOW, WOW and WOW!  What an event!

Santa Cruz Woodie Club gals again made the trip to the Holiday Traditions Open House at Filoli Gardens on November 28th.  After meeting for a great lunch and chat fest in the Filoli Café, we ventured over to the mansion to begin our trek through this Christmas wonderland.  Stopping for a group photo outside the mansion, we did a pretty …
