This year we will have our friends from Vitalant at the car show
with their Bloodmobile looking for donors. 
Donated blood is one of the most critical requirements
for the treatment of cancer.
Your donation can go far in assuring children
receive the care they need.

100% of the car shows proceeds go to benefit

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital





Thanks to those who supported
last year’s show
$100,000
was donated to St. Jude in 2023.


This would not be possible without our sponsors, those that attend the show and the volunteers that put in the hours to make this event happen each year while asking for nothing in return.


Through the hard work of all of our club volunteers and with the generosity of the public and our sponsors, we have been able to collectively raise 

$925,085

for the children of St. Jude
since the inception of this event in 1998.


With your continued support we can make 2024
the best year yet.



The reason we have this car show each year is to help
St. Jude stand behind their mission statement:
"We won't stop until no child dies from cancer"

The amazing improvement in the survival rates of childhood cancer shown below, prove that St. Jude is doing just that.  




The world is made up of givers and takers. The takers may sometimes eat better, but the givers always sleep better.
