Event Description
Come on Georgia Cruisers....Let's show everyone what kind of money the cruisers in North Georgia can raise for a good cause!!
The Beth Gilstrap Benefit Car Show is being held by her friends to help raise funds for her medical care. Beth is a single Mom that was diagnosied with Stage 3 Lung Cancer in November 2009. Even with insurance her medical bills have grown. We are trying to raise money to take some of the burden off of her and her family.
Because it is a benefit show, we will only be giving away a top 20 award, Best Club Participation and the Beth Gilstrap Pick award. The main purpose of the show is to come out and have fun with your family and friends and help a family in need. There will also be live music. The Gainesville Police Dept and other emergency vehicles will be on hand for the kids. We will also be grilling from a giant Georgia Bulldog grill.
The park offers shade trees, a playground and tennis court for the kids, so make it a family day and help a family in need.
We hope to have several other attractions and we will have plenty of food!! Come out and help us make this event a success, A map of the park can be found on the Hall County website,

Thanks to all the cruisers that came out for our event. We raised a little over $2,700.00. That will help Beth out a lot. Thanks to the Gainesville and Flowery Branch Police Dept and the Hall County Fire Dept for being part of this event. You all should be proud of yourself for helping such a great cause and Beth really appreciated it. It helped her just by knowing that someone cared!!

1958 Porsche 356 Speedster
The 1958 Porsche 356 Speedster marks the swan song of one of Porsche’s most iconic and minimalist models.

With its low windshield,…

1948 Rover P3 Saloon
The 1948 Rover P3 Saloon marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of British motoring.

The Volunteer Gap: Thoughts on Why Car Clubs Are Struggling to Fill Leadership Roles, and What to Do About It
With car shows, cruise-ins, tours, parades and varied events across the country, car clubs continue to bring enthusiasts together for camaraderie, preservation, and celebration of automotive history.
