Only registered cars have access to the Plaza and Lot, but anyone can join in the ride at 6 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cruise, which has seen exponential growth since its inception six years ago has, for the past three years, been made possible through the generous stewardship of presenting sponsor&nbsp;<strong>Crawford General Contracting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe history of the automobile is deeply connected to Windsor,\u201d said Steve Crawford, owner of Crawford General Contracting. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to support the Ouellette Car Cruise and allow Windsorites to connect with this part of their history.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Space is extremely limited due to COVID-19 restrictions, and Riverfront Festival Plaza is already at capacity, so participants are encouraged to register soon to secure their presence at Caesars Windsor\u2019s Red Lot.
