The 166 members of Rogue Valley Street Rods wish to thank the Southern Oregon public for attending our 2008 Rod & Custom Show. We had 100 great vehicles for their enjoyment, as well as many fine vendor displays. Our thanks, also, to the folks who brought their cars, trucks, and motorcycles out in the middle of February to make this annual event possible. Without their help, there would be no show.
Further thanks go to our fellow car clubs in the area who assisted us with parking lot and door control, as well as a myriad of other "little details" that always seem to pop up. We must also give a BIG "Thank You" to all of our sponsors, whether they contributed food, cash, trophies, services, advertising, door prizes, etc., the list is endless.
All of this, plus the tireless effort of the club members who worked at various jobs at the show, combined to enable us to donate $27,000.00 to the Child Development and Rehabilitation Center at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland. These donations are used to benefit children in the Southern Oregon area. This brings our cumulative donations of this, and past years, to over $370,000.00.
This is a group effort, not an individual ego-feeder, and requires more work than a lot of people realize. Somehow, we always seem to get it done. The feeling that comes with the giving of a substantial donation to provide services that are not in the regular hospital budget, is enough to sustain us, and make us want to do it again in 2009. Thank you, EVERYONE!
