The date for the Warriors United Car Show (November 9th) is fast approaching and if you haven't registered yet,
please do so soon as the cutoff date is November 4th, 2013. The show is open to all makes/models/ and years
of vehicles but will be limited to 250 vehicles.
The show will be held on November 9th at the corporate office of Hawthorne Caterpiller in Rancho Bernardo.
The event will be a car, truck, bike and military vehicle show, with trophies and awards going to eleven
categories of vehicles. There will be music, food, and exhibitions and fun for the whole family. There
will be pen striping exhibitions, and the "Wild Thing", a 3500 HP Dragster, and a host of other activities
along with a raffle and auction of great items, and special guests.
All proceeds from the show will benefit the Warrior Foundation - Freedom Station. You may not have heard of
them but this is a local non-profit organization (all workers/staff are volunteers) that returns 96%
of all monies raised back to our service men and women who are returning from combat with their lives and
bodies torn apart. Using the existing Freedom Station to house these warriors, the Foundation also privides
funds to these warriors to support them during the period between their discharge and the receipt of their
first disability check (which can take up to a year believe it or not), provides transporation for them and
their relatives during recovery and holiday seasons, education services, and a whole host of other needed
services.
Please visit
www.warriorfoundation.com for more information on this wonderful local non-profit foundation.
One of the main goals of the show is to help provide funds so that Sandy Lehmkuhler, the founder and
president can open a second Freedom Station to house more of these warriors during their transition into
civilian life.
As one of our friends, a triple amputee said "They don't have the luxury of going back to their previous lives,
they have to learn to start from scratch!". Warrior Fondation and Freedom Station is their steady foundation
and their "hand up".

Let's show our support for this charity. The link to the registration is on the front page of this thread. Hope to see many of you there.
This show is being put on to benefit The Warrior Foundation and Freedom Station. These charities help disabled veterans to assist them with their recovery. They also provide the family of these disabled veterans to come out to San Diego to be at their side. I like to get max participation at this show as many of us are active, veterans, and retired military, or family of veterans.
