    Guys,
    it's that time of year again and I really need your help giving back.

    Dupont Nemours Children's hospital is hosting their fifth annual prom for patients with Cancer and Blood disorders on April 23rd from 5-6. These children unfortunately missed their own proms due to illness. The hospital asked me if anyone in our car community would again be interested in helping transport patients and their guests from the Doubletree hotel on Concord Pike to the Hospital, a few miles away. These past few years your generosity has made this event into the highlight of the year for many of the kids. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your continued support.

    We will again have a police escort as we drive the children from the staging area at the Doubletree Hotel to the Hospital a couple of miles away. They are aware that many of our exotics are two seaters, and its not a problem. Depending on how many drivers we get, we may have to do a few runs.

    Guys, this a wonderful opportunity to help give an unforgettable night to some young adults who have had a really rough go of it.

    Please help me. I would love it if we could again have 50 cars this year.

    As an extra incentive, my firm will again donate $1000.00 to the hospital if we get enough volunteers to make this viable.

    Here is the link from last year:

    It's a very long drive for me, and all I have to offer right now is a 2006 Cayenne Turbo S, looks great but probably not so exciting for the kids. If it gets down to where you need my attendance, let me know.

    We had a great time last year and used our G63, we will probably take that again or the SLS Roadster, but most kids like the G-wagon more!

    I'm down to the Porsche Cayenne Titanium Edition S right now, at least it's red :) Anyway if you need help kindly let me know and I would be happy to help out.

    BTW the advantage of a car with a back seat is a "couple" could arrive together.

    As far as regular production Ferraris go... I have to agree. Though the testarossa is far more beautiful ;)

    Is this in Delaware? I'd like to participate, probably bring my 308...have to confirm and need to figure out logistics.

    Also, I believe you want drivers to wear at least a jacket, correct? Not a problem, just want to confirm.

    On another note, my brother is a cancer survivor and owner of a '61 Corvette. Not sure he can make the trip, but he has some friends that may be interested, so I'll check on that too.

    absolutely!!!

    if only you owned one for the kids to see/ride in for this event…


    :)


    (the ribbing is only funny because of the incredible efforts Joe goes to organize these events. This and frosty balls are not insignificant amounts of time to figure out. the teasing is allowed with a check, yes?)

    Based on your firm's generous donation to the Hospital at the Frosty Balls Rally, you get a free pass :D

    Make another donation and you can even make fun of my Momma ;)

    We would love to have you and your brother! There is no formal dress
    Code, a nice pair of khakis and a button down would be appreciated, but only if not too inconvenient .
