Default Chicago Area Cars and Coffee

I have been in conversation with Midwest Motors in Lake Zurich http://www.midwestmotors.com and Fuzzy Dice promotions. We are working on a Sunday Morning Cars and Coffee to be held at Midwest motors. This will be a once a month gathering. We will serve coffee and doughnut etc. This will be a enthusiast car event and open to all cars / bikes. We are using this as our venue this year to raise money for St Jude. I am thinking $10.00 per person donation to St Jude,or $20.00 with a St Jude tee shirt with ALL proceeds going to the Corvette Forum St Jude effort. I need everyones help to promote this and spread the word to ALL local clubs. St Jude is a great cause, Midwest Motors has an awesome dealership and tons of exotic cars to drool over. I bought my ZR1 from these folks and they were great to deal with. They are one of the sponsors of Supercar Saturdays and sponsor at least one of the local Corvette clubs. If this is something you could see yourself participating in, or have any suggestions please comment below. We will do our best to try and schedule these so we don't have interference with the other happenings in the area. We have raised over $50K in the past 4 years as Chicago Cars for St Jude. Thnak you in advance for your support.

With this winter being so mild, at least not much snow, I'm chomping at the bit for spring!!
