10 Years of Cars, 20 Years of Community Impact!
Rev your engines and mark your calendars! This year’s Car Show & Family Fun Day for Autism isn’t just any event – it’s a massive double celebration. Not only is this our 10th annual car show, but it also marks 20 years of Potential serving individuals with autism and their families in our community!
And for the past ten years, this car show has been the ultimate way to bring our community together to celebrate, have fun, and drive that mission forward.
This year’s milestone event promises to be our biggest and best yet, packed with incredible classic and custom cars, local businesses, great food trucks, touch-a-truck, and family-friendly entertainment. But we can’t make the magic happen alone. We need YOU to help us fuel the fun!
