Celebrating the Dog Days of Summer for a Good Cause

Written by News Desk 8 | Aug 8, 2014 10:58:04 PM

Cars and dogs just seem to go together. Whether you're washing your classic car in the driveway, wrenching late at night in the garage, or going for a top-down cruise to the beach, your four-legged best friend will always be there by your side. The onset of the dog days of summer reminded us of this connection between man, machine, and dog, and got us thinking about a way to help the dog lovers among us.

After doing some research, we came upon Guide Dogs of America, a charity that provides guide dogs and guide dog training to the blind and visually impaired—all completely free of charge. Even better, we noticed that they hold a yearly classic car show in Sacramento, California, with all proceeds going to the charity. So, we decided to do everything we could to raise awareness about the show, and make this year's turnout the biggest yet. We will also be donating gift certificates and a variety of promotional items to be used as raffle prizes.

If you live within driving distance of Sacramento, we encourage you to take your classic car or truck down to the show and support Guide Dogs of America. All makes and models are welcome, and there will be a silent auction, raffle, food, and prizes to enjoy. The show will be held on October 4th, 2014 at Hagan Park (click here for a Google Maps link to the location).
