WEST HILLS - Organizers of the popular LAFD Charity Car Show are putting out a community call for Pinewood Derby participants to prepare their 'wheels' for racing at the October 13, 2013 benefit, which features food cooked by firefighters, toe-tapping tunes and a raffle with some great prizes!
The hand-crafted miniature racers are a popular addition to the glistening full-sized cars, motorcycles, boats and trucks that will be on static display for the entire community to enjoy.
This family-themed car show - free for all spectators - proudly draws public participants from throughout California.
All proceeds from the LAFD Charity Car Show and Pinewood Derby benefit the Widows, Orphans and Disabled Firemen’s Fund as well as the Firefighters Quest for Burn Survivors. To further help firefighters and those they proudly serve, there will be an on-site blood drive hosted by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
Today's special announcement is a reminder for Pinewood Derby participants to begin shaping their racers to be in compliance with contest rules for stock and super stock class. To support the charitable cause, there is a $5.00 entry per Pinewood Derby vehicle, which will be collected at race check-in. There will be trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each class.
In fact, now would also be great time to register your full-size show car, truck, boat or motorcycle!
Please save Sunday, October 13, 2013 and plan to join us for a day of family fun in the West San Fernando Valley. To learn more, visit:
