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

    The Dupont Nemours Children's hospital is hosting their 7th annual prom for patients with Cancer and Blood disorders on Saturday, May 5th from 4:30-6:30. (WHEELS UP at 5:15) These children unfortunately missed their own proms due to illness. Every year the Hospital organizes a prom for these children on premises. Thanks to your past help, for the last few years the highlight of the event has been the exotic cars that have escorted many of the children to the Hospital from a separate staging area. With your assistance, the Prom has grown exponentially over the last few years.


    If anyone in our car community would again be interested in helping transport patients and their guests from the staging area at Delcastle Technical High School at 1417 Newport Road, Wilmington, Delaware and take them to the to the DuPont Children's Hospital a few miles away. Police will be providing an escort for the cars to and from the event and we have taken substantial steps to eliminate delays at the staging and arrival areas to make cars move swiftly through the line.


    These past few years your generosity has made this event the highlight of the year for many of the kids. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your continued support.

    Based on the number of cars we have, we will know how many trips we need to take to the hospital. In total we need to transport 100 children, so the more cars that are involved, the easier it will be.


    RDS Automotive has already volunteered to bring a few McLarens and other special cars, I’m hoping you will join them.


    If you are interested in joining us, please sign up below and message me your full name and town/state of residence to provide to the Hospital.




    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.

    PLEASE POST YOUR INTEREST AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

    Joe, of course I am in! With either the Viper, or if you need truck support again this year, the Ram.
    For any newbies considering this, it is a very worthwhile and fun event, especially for the kids! (And us big kids too!)

    It was another amazing year. We had more cars than ever participate, well over 50 by my count. On behalf of the hospital, the children and myself, I thank all of you for your generosity. You helped make it a wonderful evening for the kids.
