Sportsplex Charity Car Show

Thanks to the Limestone County Mustang Club (of which Eli was a member), EBP has been the beneficiary of the Athens Sportsplex Charity Car Show in the past. The show is hosted and run by members of the Mustang Club. Traditionally, it is a "Show and Shine" event with cash prize drawings and 50/50 tickets. It attracts hundreds of vehicles with a variety of unique and interesting makes and models. All proceeds go to the charity being featured. Registration is the day of the event and is typically $10. Vendors are welcome and should contact Joseph Scott. Food is provided by the concession stand at the Sportsplex.
