Another Successful Year!
November 2013 we fed 600 needy families for Thanksgiving!!
We thank you again for bringing your car, family & friends, covered dish and donations for this great event. We encourage you to submit your pictures and videos to add to the website and calendar, contact information is on the Maps & Contact page. For all you new comers the car party is held on the 1st Sunday of November every year in beautiful Tarpon Springs, FL. The car party consists of classic cars, hot rods, motorcycles, new model cars and so on, a big lunch where Terry and Rhonda provide the main dish and beer (you provide the side covered dish), motorcycle tricks, and burn outs to end the day.
The annual charity car party all started back in 1992, our initial intent was to have a car party with our close friends and their street rods. We then decided to collect nonperishable food and donations for turkeys to feed families in need for Thanksgiving. That year we fed 3 families for Thanksgiving. Little did we know those good friends with their street rods would grow into 100's of attendees and would become the biggest and best car party of the year!
The first Sunday of November is a day we look forward to. It's a lot of work getting ready for and even more work after it is all over, but after the car party family and close friends help sort and bag the food, then we use the money you all donated to order all the turkey’s from Publix who also houses all the Turkeys for us till it’s time to send them out to the families. The best part about all of this is hearing the stories of how all of us are helping so many families in need in our area. This right here is enough of an reward for all the work that goes into getting these meals out to those families who need it the most.
We would like to thank each and every one of you for giving from the heart.. All the canned goods and money donated for the turkey's helped us feed 600 families last year!
Please bring a covered dish to go with the pulled pork sandwich and beer that we provide for the big lunch, it is very much appreciated!!!

We would like to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts for the donations raised at the Annual Charity Car Party.
In the US, hunger isn't caused by a lack of food, but rather the continued prevalence of poverty and 50.1 million Americans struggle to put food on the table. Thanks to your help we were able to feed 620 of those families right here in our very own community.
