The second annual “All About Autism “ car, motorcycle and truck show and cruise-in will be held Aug. 16th at Quaker Steak and Lube at 8500 Lyra Drive near the intersection of I-71 and Polaris Parkway – for the benefit of Oakstone Academy, a school for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders. The event is being hosted by Boyd’s Goodyear , Glassburn Body Shop , and Quaker Steak and Lube.
The event begins at 3 p.m. Registration of vehicles begins at 11 a.m. and is $15.00 T-shirts and prizes will be awarded to the owners of the first 250 vehicles registered. Trophies will be awarded to the top five finishers in each category.
Event co-organizers Mike Hoover and Dennis Glassburn, said the event will include live music featuring local cover band Six Pack Theory, a silent auction, raffles and activities for kids.
“The silent auction will have some excellent items,” Glassburn said. I’ve been amazed at the generosity of the many individuals and organizations who have donated to this event.”
Hoover has two children who are on the autism spectrum, and Glassburn has an autistic son as well that attend Oakstone Academy, which recently acquired the old Westerville Athletic Club building through a very generous donation from Mr. Don Kenney, to be used as a high school for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
“The
proceeds from the event will once again be put toward completing renovations
of the building
for the purpose of a high school for autistic children,” Hoover said.
“The cost of the renovations is about a million dollars . We’re hoping
to get between 500 and 600 vehicles again this year to the show and help
them make another dent in that figure.”
