The Langley Good Times Cruise-In numbers paint a pretty picture for the local economy. After a year’s hiatus, the community’s single largest event returned for 2011, much to the delight of car enthusiasts, charities, and businesses alike, said president Riccardo Sestito. Just looking at it from a numbers perspective, the

annual car show has become a major tourist attraction that infuses a lot of good will and money into Langley each year. Start with the numbers 1-9-9-7. They represent the beginning, the year when just a handful of merchants in Langley City came together to host 430 cars in the first annual car show. A couple of thousand people attended.
