Sinful Pleasures Car Club expects as many as 300 cars to roll in for the daylong fundraiser, which is scheduled to take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the West Valley Mall, 3200 Naglee Road.
“A lot of us in the car club, we have children, so Sandra’s story really hit home for a lot of us,” said Doug Colapietro, one of the organizers. “We wanted to help the mother, the grandparents.”
He expects to raise at least $3,000 for the family, though donations will go directly to Tracy CrimeStoppers.
The show will feature several food and merchandise vendors, including several local businesses. There will also be music, lots of raffle prizes and a donation booth.
Colapietro said he’s preparing for a crowd of several hundred.
