SoFla - charity ride events?
anyone know of any charity ride type events in the sofla area? i know corvettes arent mclarens or ferraris, etc, but we still love our cars and there are plenty of people that love them as well and don't have the opportunity to ever be in one or be taken out for a spin. figured i would check in here first to see if there are any groups that go to hospitals or something to do charity ride type events. i'd sign up if there were!

I do those things in the Tampa Clearwater area as part of the St Jude stuff here on the forum...just make sure if you want to do a charity event for one of those places that they know, they don't mind you using their name/logo and remember if you do an event that your participants actions will reflect on that organization (IOW tell people not to act like idiots during the cruise)....also you may want a copy of their 501c3 on hand so if people ask where the money is going etc you can show them. Good luck

ive never set one up and was just curious if people had done anything like it down here in the miami area…i think it would be pretty cool…a couple of my buddies do it out in austin,tx here and there with a bunch of sport cars (ie: ferrari's, mclarens, etc)…

I do the toys for tots runs and other events when I know of them. There was the Mustang Patriot 911 run 2 weekends ago. The events in SoFlo are scattered everywhere. I get a LOT off FB local pages that I subscribe too.
I do believe Miami definitely has room for a few more events.
