Locals attend annual Cruisin’ Yuma Charity Car Show
YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Locals across Yuma County were revving their engines and raising money in the Foothills Saturday.
The annual Crusin' Yuma Charity Car Show took place at Fortuna De Oro RV Resort at 10:00 a.m. in an effort to raise money for local Veterans and youth.
This year, the show was under new management, but the goal remains the same with even more charities involved.
"They always they gave scholarships to like Annapolis and then they also supported the with the donation to the Young Marines and the Sea Cadet program here in Yuma. We're going to continue that, but our major beneficiaries will be the Wounded Warriors Project and Tunnels to Towers," said Ed Ernest, President of the Yuma Car Club.
"It's nice to support the charities as well as other small businesses in this town, and it's great to have as many people come out and support it as possible," said Jordan Anthony, owner of the Motor Pool.
The car show, which lasted until 3:00 p.m., was free to attend and had 147 entries to go towards the donations.
