SOCAL- MOTOR4toys Charity Car Show Dec. 7



Guys, this year more than ever we NEED you! Last year, we had 3200 cars come, this year, we expect 5000 and it is our goal to collect 30,000 toys for needy kids!

NOTE- NEW LOCATION
The Anthem Building in Warner Center (Blue Cross)
21555 Oxnard St. Woodland Hills, CA 91367

Please call, email, post. Get everyone you can. Also, some clubs are setting up meeting locations to drive in together..the PCA is coming in together, Redline Corvette +Simi Valley Corvettes +Valencia Corvettes, Ferraris meeting...so put the calls out and look for the posts. If you have a big group meeting in the valley, let me know and I will try to get you an escort.

Also, if you wish to be a sponsor or to donate something, we could really use it!

For more info or to make a dontation please goto: www.motor4toys.com

Also, on NOV. 16th, there is a group meeting at VCR and we are going to all head over to Toy R US on Topanga to buy toys...to kick the vent off. We will have a LAPD escort and the news along with us. Please come by. WE will depart at 10am sharp.

THANK YOU
Dustin

Thanks for everything Dustin!

The kick off, today was great and the LAPD escort was really cool as well. The cars were also amazing, I must say. Unfortunately I think I was the only one there from MBworld but hope by Dec 7, some others from here can attend.

Here are some pix from my 2 mp camera phone: http://www.flickr.com/photos/2728822...7609232544446/



Thanks Again!
