As some of you may know I host a charity car show and dragon run every year. This year I am having the two into the same weekend. This will be our 3rd annual car show and 2nd annual dragon run. The purpose of these shows is to raise money for JDRF(Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation). Over the last two years we have raised a total of $6,748 dollars for JDRF. This year should be bigger and better than ever. The dates for the show are Sept 26th and 27th. The car show will be on Saturday and the dragon run on Sunday. The car show will be located in Clayton, GA which is just a short drive from both the south carolina and north carolina state lines. The actually location of the show is TBA as I am finalizing some details in the next few weeks. The Dragon Run will leave from Franklin, NC which is just about 15 minutes from Clayton, GA. There will also be a dinner and get together saturday night after the show for those that are staying in town for the dragon run. I will have information on host hotels for those who wish to stay over night. The car show will be a judged show but it will be very casual. We give away top 25 trophies as well as several best of awards. Entry to the car show is twenty dollars. There will also be food and drinks and live music. Entry to the dragon run will be a minimum 15 dollar donation. All the monies raised goes to JDRF. This is a great cause and I hope to see you there!!!

I hope to see alot of my SEFB brothers and sisters there:thumbsup1:
It really is an awesome cause I didn't realize how many kids were effected by it until I started this almost three years. Seems like every person you tell about the show knows someone who is effected by it.

Its all good dude. What happened?
We had around 25 cars and between this and the cruise in we had raised almost four thousand dollars this year for JDRF. That puts our three year total at over ten grand. Not bad for a rainy day.

I know!!! Yeah I got plenty of pictures Im uploading them now. For some reason my dang internet wasn't working last night when I got home but after driving two hundread miles I was so wore out all I really wanted to do was sit on the couch and drink beer anyway:lol1:
But yeah I would love to pack the house next year. I usually take about a month off then Ill start planning for 2010 around November. Im thinking of using the same dates unless the QS&L SEFB show is gonna use the same date next year. I know the pony run won't be going on next year because of the nationals being held a few weeks before.
