The show location is the Hayes Dodge dealership, 3115 Frontage Rd in Gainesville GA from 11:00 to 5:00 with trophies awarded at 4:00.. All the money we collect goes to benefit the children in foster care in our county. We provide care bags when a foster child comes into foster care with all the necessities like a tooth brush and tooth paste and things like a new toy, a blanket... We also provide Christmas gifts for every child in care and we are looking to start up providing a birthday gift for their special day. We need your help to be able to take care of the 130 or so Hall County foster children. Registration is $15 per vehicle. We also welcome venders. Check out our website and see pics of our other car shows at www.lovehopehealing.com! We hope to see you there!!
The foster parents of Hall County would like to invite you to our second annual car show on May 5th at the Hayes Chrysler dealership in Gainesville. All the money that we make will go toward getting every foster child in our county Christmas gifts. Last year we were able to get over 150 children something to open on Christmas morning!!
We are so pleased to have you joining us! We are looking forward to pictures & videos of your Harley, as well as all the other vehicles that you enjoy. Please consider contributing stories about your vehicles to our blog posting. We always enjoy the personal experiences of our friends.
Also, we are looking for help posting events about wheeled vehicles, club meetings, etc. that we may have overlooked. It is one of the real strengths of our website Calendar that anyone can post an event, meeting or activity at anytime. The submission process is so straight forward that anyone can do it as long as they have the basic information people will need to consider attending.
Add me as a Friend and I can help with special events, announcements and stuff.
Sincerely,
Mike Thies
