2nd Annual NewRoads Big Brothers Big Sisters Charity Classic Car Show
At NewRoads we pride ourselves in looking after our customers. We also have tremendous pride in helping our local community where we can.
On Sunday July 14th we held our 2nd Annual NewRoads Big Brothers Big Sisters Charity Classic Car Show. Although the weather was extremely hot we still had hundreds come out to enjoy the day.
The activities for the kids – all FREE – jumping castles, face painting, clown, balloon animals, hats, and most popular balloon swards, and putting contest made the event fun for the entire family. Our Ice Cream truck, NewRoads BBQ and Raffle Prizes were also fantastic.
The vehicles that attended the show were spectacular! We truly thank those that brought their vehicles, visited or volunteered. In fact our registration grew from 70 to 100 cars which are amazing and ironic as Big Brothers Big Sisters are celebrating 100 years this past March.
Big Brothers Big Sisters offers a wide range of mentoring opportunities to meet the varied needs of volunteers, children and families. Serving as role models, mentors teach by example the importance of giving and giving back, of staying in school, and for having respect for family, peers and community. Each time they pair a child with a mentor or introduce a group of students to a group program, they start something.

The show raised a couple thousand dollars directly from generous attendee registration fees and donations. The NewRoads Automotive Group was proud to top the amount up considerably to $10,000 ensuring it was not only an extremely fun event for all, but a rewarding one for BBBS – which is simply such a deserving and valuable organization in our community. Please find New Roads pictures and video of the event at newroads.ca under the blogs section”.
We look forward to a long standing relationship with BBBS.
Thanks again to all our volunteers and everyone who attended!! We look forward to next year’s show!!!
