📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE: EVENT CANCELLED
Please join us in supporting our “Friends in Blue” instead!
We have decided to cancel our 3rd Annual “Hot Rods & Hoses” event previously scheduled for Sunday, May 17th.
Our neighbors at the Hanover Township PBA Local 128 are hosting their “Cars, Coffee, and Cops” fundraiser on the same morning. In the spirit of community and mutual support, we want to ensure our residents and car enthusiasts aren’t divided between two great events.
We are encouraging everyone to head right up the road to the Hanover Marriott to support the PBA’s mission. All proceeds from their event go toward buying gifts for sick children at Goryeb Children’s Hospital.
New Sunday Morning Plans:
-
Where: Hanover Marriott (1401 Route 10 E, Whippany)
-
When: Sunday, May 17th | Starting at 8:00 AM
-
Why: Support a great cause, grab a coffee, and see some amazing cars!
We’ll see you there alongside our brothers and sisters in blue! 🚒🤝🚔
