I'm very pleased and honored to say that New York Mustangs has teamed with the Make-A-Wish Foundation®!
If you would like a high resolution copy of this flyer to print, please PM me.
Mission
Our mission is to raise enough money to grant the wish of a child with a life-threatening medical condition and to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy. Fulfilling a child’s wish provides a joyful and meaningful experience that benefits both the child and their family. All of these children are extremely brave and most know nothing but doctors, surgeries, hospitals and pain on a daily basis. Through the Adopt-A-Wish program that Make-A-Wish has created, our goal is to grant a child a wish of their choice. By granting this wish, a child will be able to forget about all doctor visits, medical treatment or next operation. For the time being they will be able to forget their illness and just be a kid, all with our generous donations and willingness to help.
In order to Adopt-A-Wish or grant a wish to one of these children, we must raise and donate $7,000 to the foundation. Don’t be alarmed by this number, we are fully capable and will reach this goal. We raised $2,000 at the Veterans Cruise with only 5 sponsors and have more than doubled in size since then. Together we can do this, we have the power, the numbers, and the determination to turn this into a reality.
Sponsorship
If you would like to help us reach our goal by ways of sponsorship, please either contact me right here, e-mail me at mike@nymustangs.com, or call me at 914-297-8517. Each sponsor will have their logo and contact information on the back of the shirts, will be mentioned at the show, and their info will be plastered all over the web site. We also have vendor spots available too. We will also be having a raffle at the show and welcome all free products and give-aways.
All checks to be payable to New York Mustangs and should be mailed to:
New York Mustangs
PO Box 96
Peekskill, NY 10566
How To Donate
Since we have a somewhat large goal I have decided to set up a donation page right here on the site to help reach our goal. Just because the event is June 12th doesn’t mean you can’t donate now and give us a head start. You may do so by visiting this page to DONATE NOW http://www.newyorkmustangs.com/wish
You may also send a check payable to New York Mustangs to the PO Box provided above and we will be accepting donations at the show as well.
Show Information
The show will be located at Thomas Bull Memorial Park, the same spot where the Veterans Cruise was last year. ALL ARE WELCOME!!! Members & non-members, everybody can come spectate. The address @ Thomas Bull Memorial Park is:
Montgomery, NY
(Click for directions)
Group Picnic Area
The official start of the show is June June 12 @ 11:00 AM (Rain date will be July 24, 2010)
We ask that everybody in attendance at the show contributes to the fundraiser with a minimum of a $25 donation. With this donation you will receive a NYM Make-A-Wish 2010 T-Shirt, a raffle ticket to win give-aways, a goodie bag filled with some cool things, you will be eligible to win trophies in your class, and much more. These are LAST YEAR'S Veterans Cruise shirts. The Make-A-Wish shirts are done being designed and in production!
Aside from showing off our cars and enjoying the show with your fellow New York Mustangs members, there will also be vendors on site, food, a judged show, contests, music, give-aways, raffles and some other surprises as well. Don't worry about bringing any food or drinks, we will have everything there! There are also Men and Women bathrooms on site. Don't forget to bring your frisbee and baseball glove to utilize the field, maybe some home run derby wiffle ball?
Meeting Spots / Cruising to the Show
Each region's coordinators have set up specific meeting locations and times for everybody to meet in the morning before the show. From these spots you will then proceed to cruise up to the show. Here are the threads for each specific region.
- Central NY Area
- Southern NY Area
- Long Island
- New York City
- Northern NY
In conclusion, I would like to thank each and every one of you who will be part of this wonderful cause by attending, contributing, helping out, and raising money. I feel it is essential to give back to the community and help those who truly need it. We are more than just a bunch of people with Mustangs and it's an honor to be a part of such a great group of people.
Obviously the more this Make-A-Wish show is known, the more money we will raise and the faster we will reach our goal. Tell everybody you know and have them tell everybody they know. Just because somebody doesn’t have a Mustang or isn’t a New York Mustangs member doesn’t mean they can’t come, enjoy the day, and help us reach our goal. Also if anybody knows people in any media related field (TV, radio, newspaper, magazines, etc.) please contact them, or contact me and we will do what we have to do to get the event out there.
I will be updating this thread daily and will have the official attendance list here as well. Please let us know in this thread if you will be attending and one of the moderators will add you to the list.
Thanks for the help and I look forward to seeing everybody there ------------------------------
