One of our members's friends noticed a 17-year old kid named Jason that sat at the end of his street everyday watching cars go by. Turns out that he has cerebral palsy and was a big car lover. After some discussion, the member and his friend decided to surprise Jason with his own private car show of our cars. They worked together with the local neighborhood to make sure he was out there on this particular day and even set up a police escort for all fifty-ish of us! I am in the black X1.

It was really rewarding to see the joy on Jason's face when he saw us all drive by. His parents and the neighborhood were incredibly gracious hosts, and provided drinks and snacks to everyone. Jason even got the chance to sit in several of the cars!

Anyway I figured this would bring a smile to many of your faces, and there are some cool cars in there (including a Phoenix Gold M4 with full carbon package). I am also sharing because for diseases like this, publicity is everything. I have members of my family who have similar diseases and I know all too well how getting funding is a challenge for diseases that are not in the limelight.

If you have the chance to do stuff like this, I highly recommend it.
