The Charity?
Cancer Care Foundation of Brevard

A diagnosis of cancer changes lives forever and in many ways. Not only are those diagnosed affected, but also those who care for them. The body experiences changes that impact the mind and spirit. Roles change in the family and workplace and one's place in the world may never be the same. Many times these changes lead to financial stresses at a time when all one's energy should be focused on healing and coping. It is the vision of the Foundation to ease the burdens and strengthen the mind/body/spirit during this time of change for both the cancer survivors and those who care for them.

This is our third year doing such a show and it gets biger and better every year. Last year we had over 400+ cars and over 1,000 spectators..largest show to hit Brevard...ever...and it'll be even better this year.

I personally would love to see a bunch of fellow 240 owners get together like we used to....for those who remember the Tampa and Orlando meets way back when......let me know if ya plan to attend!!

I did a copy and paste from Zilvia.

So anyways, who's up for it? It be awesome if we can get the whole dM team over so we can win crew at the event and andy and nobody can win maybe in their car section, last year no one entered in the subaru section. So post up if you can go. Hopefully my car would be ready by then.

that does sound kinda cool, if it's not a horrible trip and everyone else goes i'd probably be down (assuming i can tolerate florida w/no AC and my car will make it there).

yea, those things look awesome. i have a feeling they cost a bit though, and if i'm wasting money i'd kinda rather put it on a gas powered pocket bike right now as they seem like they'd be a blast (especially if we hit up more shows or outdoor places this season).

:(

I can't go to that show! that's the same day as the ft. meade rallye so I'll be doing that instead! That's not too far from Melbourne though [well only an hour or two] so maybe we could make a weekend in central florida and do something on Sunday together:)
