Illinois FTE Anthem

Well at Cruise Night in Frankfort tonight, a song came on the radio. This song gave me the idea of an anthem for the FTE. The song was "Convoy" by C.W. McCall. I was wondering if anyone else thinks that the Illinois Chapter at least should have an anthem? I think "Convoy" would make a good anthem.

Frankfort cruise--what's that?

I'm new here and I'm interested in the cruise nights. Where and when are they? Any shows through FTE? I saw a 100-mile cruise and show for Ford trucks in Wisconsin Dells on the internet and was very interested but it's basically for pre-1972 trucks. Want to get to meet more FTE members.

Welcome to FTE! The Frankfort cruise nite is located in downtown Frankfort on Thursday nights from 6-10 PM. On Friday nights, there is a cruise nite at the Stake 'N Shake in Tinley Park on RT.43(Harlem Ave.) from 6-10 PM. On Sunday night there is a cruise nite in Oak Forest in the Aldi's parking lot off of Cicero Ave.(RT. 50) from 6-10 PM. So far we have had one truck show through the IL Chapter of FTE. We had it in May at the Kankakee River State Park. Unfortunately, we didn't have a very big turn-out for our first show. We may have another truck show this September, depending on how much interest there is in doing something like that.

Thanks, John. Can we do something close to Rockford? There are quite a few Ford trucks in this area that attend the regular car cruises and car shows. How can we get something going for FTE? Seems like everything is in the burbs or southern IL.

Larry, are there any cruise nites in the Rockford area on Friday or Saturday nights? If there are, let me know where they are located and we can try and plan a FTE IL Chapter meeting for the Rockford area.
