History
Mid-State Cruizers car club was chartered in August of 1989 by local automotive enthusiasts interested in uniting with others fo purpose of appreciating and preserving automobiles of interest.
The original club name of "Mid-State Muscle Cars" was changed early on to "Mid-State Cruizers" as an open invitation to auto enthusiasts of every persuasion.
In August of 1990 the club organized the first Atascadero Lake Car Show to raise funds for the local community.
It has been an annuals family event ever since.
In 1994 the club members with the assistance of many local businesses restored a 1955 Chevy Police car and donated it to the Atascadero Police Department. The car is used in the department's DARE program and participates in macy events each year.
Through the years the Mid-State Cruizers Car Club has raised a substantial amount of money fo the benefit of our community. Beneficiaries of past car shows have included:
"Loaves and Fishes", The Womens' Shelter, Atascadero Lake Pavillion, the light around the lake, Atascadero High School Auto Shop Program as well as various youth and charitable groups.
