You are invited to join in on a cruise from Yorktown Va to Jamestown Virginia along the scenic Colonial Parkway to enjoy the Autumn coolness and colors. We will be stopping in Colonial Williamsburg for 2 hours so everyone can eat, shop, tour the historic area, or anything else you wish. I am the cruise coordinator and the host club is the Tidewater Mopar Club with several of us representing the VOA.
