MS Road to a Cure Charity Car Show 2023
August 5, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
Last year, with the help of the local car community, local businesses, and show attendees, we were able to raise and donate $10,000 directly to the My MS Family charity. Together we made a huge impact in the local MS community with the money raised directly going to those that needed it. This year, were doing it again. Bigger! Badder! And we once again need your support! All proceeds from ticket sales, raffle sales, registration fees, vendor fees, donations and sponsorships will be donated to the My MS Family charity with an oversized cheque ceremony at the end of the show.
Help us make a difference. There is no cure for MS, but with your support, we can help them fight for a better tomorrow.

What is MS? (Multiple Sclerosis)
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the Myelin sheath that coats the spinal cord. When the Myelin is stripped away from the spinal cord, the body begins to short circuit, leading to a number of different reactions that are unique to each individual. A person with MS might lose the ability to walk or to hold onto items, might experience confusion or difficulty making decisions and ultimately, might need the assistance of caregivers to get through the day. MS causes emotional distress, possibly the loss of employment and unfortunately, at times, the break-up of families.
MS Road To A Cure
Our founding member of the ‘MS Road to a Cure Charity Car Show’ has been living with MS since 2008. At only 34 years old, she has lost partial use of the right side of her body including her right leg and arm. She has been an active member of the car community for over a decade and has never let her handicap slow her down. Her goal is to bring awareness to MS and to seek help within the car community by incorporating her passion for cars with her passion to help and educate others about MS. As a full time mother who is always on the go, she continues to be an inspiration to all within the MS community.
