I know this is a short time frame. so lets get right to it... We are planning a Benefit show for the family of a young man (age 9) with Terminal Brain Cancer. We hope to give a little financial relief to his family.
You folks out here on the forum are always eager to do something for someone so heres another chance to show off our cars and do some good for people at the same time. Also tell all your friends that this is NOT just a Corvette show this will be a OPEN show. all kinds of Cars are welcome.

Kelly, co-owner of Cruisers in Frisco, has approved the date of 12/3/05 for the show. We talked about a time of 12:00 to 5:00 ish. So! Mark your calendar location is one block North of hwy 121 on Preston Rd. Frisco Texas.
We are in the process of getting some items donated for either auctioning off or raffle tickets. If you have something that you want to contribute to the 50/50 pot bring it.

But most of all Please make every effort to attend, this young man likes cars ,in particular he loves the Corvette.


We are working with Xtreme Corvettes and Lone Star Corvettes and Cruisers Resturant and anyone else that wants to help.

Classes will be:

I talked with Perry at the car show this weekend - it is truely a selfless thing that he and his wife are doing and it tugs at my heart -- my wife and I are praying for young Chris and his family in their time of need -- rest assured the blue car will make an appearance if the job allows -- I hope that there is huge turnout and lots of money gets raised!!!!

Thanks for spreading the word. I know there are at least 2 big "Toy's for the kids type shows" on this weekend. What I would like to see is everyone benefit from our Hobby but truth be known toy's will come and go. This young man is holding on by a day at a time and I think we as a collective group could give him a very good Christmas on Dec. 3rd. Please tell all your friends and aquaintances in the Car hobbyist world about this Benefit. Lets pull together and do it. We have folks from Lone Star and Xtreme Corvette Clubs involved. How about someother clubs in the Metroplex are you willing to step up and commit ?

Fell free to link this thread to other forums. Lets get the message out to those who want to make a difference.

Well, I am not a member of any club but I think I will enter this one. Not that my car will ever have a chance of wining anything... Ever! But I should be here for it at least.


I have also changed my signature for this one.

Well...I received word tonight that Christopher Foppiano age 9 passed away from complications associated with the Brain Tumors.

His Funeral will be held in Odessa this Friday.

Just to let everyone know his Dad is going to pay for the Funeral in its entirety. Now more than ever we can step up and help his family with some of the expenses. If you would say a little prayer for the family. They sure could use it about now.

Ben

That stinks big time, I was really excited thinking about this poor guy getting to see a ton of great cars come out just for him. Its a big downer, maybe thats why the lack of replies. Prayers for his family and at least now his pain is gone.

Get notified of new replies

I am so sorry to hear the news. Our prayers go out to the family.

We are planning on attending the show with both cars and I have passed on to other clubs as well.

I passed along the show information to a couple of other forums including speedwake.com, and supraforums.com. Let's all try to get as many people there as possible.
