Cruising Around the Week of July 15th

Hi Everybody!! Keeping myself busy as always with all of our local festivals gearing up for great summer fun! This week I found myself at some of the island’s most fun festivities! Summerfest in Glace Bay had all sorts of great activities happening like.. Entertainment in town square! All kinds of different bands were lined up and I really enjoyed bopping to their music as I passed out our Cape freebies, like Old Dutch Chips, Ice Cold drinks from Cape Breton Beverages and Fresh Subway cookies!! And all summer, I will be stopping by the FUN VAN! Where kiddies go to keep active and have fun during the summer break! We always bring nice treats for them and love joining in with their games! And on Friday, I experienced my first ever “Day in the Bay.” It was a day of fun, music, side walk sales and we of course had to stir things up a little, so we set up a Stick It to Win contest, where several residents battled out for tickets to see Matt Minglewood!! It was so much fun to see them running through the streets trying to stick our instant win Stickers on people’s cars.. with their permission of course! Keep listening and who knows you could be our next Cape Instant winner!!!

SummeR Fun, July 10th Weekend!

Nothing says summer like hot weather and BBQ’s, and there has been lots of both this summer, which makes me a happy girl  You have probably been hearing a lot about Table Head Days in Glace Bay.. it’s a small town festival ran by the friendly people of Table Head. Adam, one of our Cape Promo members was born and raised there, so you can bet we had fun this weekend when we cruised out to their Community Walk and Family Picnic! We packed a lunch and brought our picnic blankets and set out to have a great day! We passed out tonnns of goodies from Cape Breton Beverages, Old Dutch and melt in your mouth Subway cookies! We played with the kids and gave away lots of our Cape Instant Win Stickers.. which will keep the folks of Table Head winning great prizes all summer long.. so make sure to pick one up for your car!! Then on Saturday, I cruised over to Reserve Mines’ Lambert Todd Days in my Honda Fit from Ramsey’s Honda  I went to the Jr. fire fighter’s competition and it was so fun!! The fire fighters were so friendly and really made it an enjoyable afternoon. There were different events, like the Hose Roll and the Obstacle Course! The kiddies loved that and because it was so HOT on Saturday they also loved the ice cold drinks that I had in my cape cruiser!! And even though I received a couple of good “accidental” hose sprays, I really didn’t mind because I was sunburned from sitting in the sun!! I gave away prizes and pop courtesy of Cape Breton Beverages!!

Today, Sunday, we did our STICK IT TO WIN!! Myself along with the Summer Promo Squad headed up to Mi’kmaq Gas and Convenience to give away FREE Gas cards, and to stick our new stickers the cars of those who love to win!! And it went over really well because I mean come on, who doesn’t love to win great prizes? Look for us because we will be Sticking up at Mi’kmaq Gas every so often this summer!!
