During the event,
$14,300 was raised. $25 per vehicle was charged and given directly
to the NYS
WTC Relief Fund. The Paragon staff volunteered that day, as
well.
The raffle
sponsors are also to be commended and include 4WheelDrive
Hardware, Quadratec,
Sun Performance
Parts & OK
4 Wheel Drive.
At around 1pm,
you could hear cheering as it came over the radio that we started
to bomb Afghanistan. People started blowing horns and it was quite
a site to see.
The event broke
up around 4:30 in the afternoon. Everyone started airring up their
rigs for the ride home. I had to straighten a crushed tailpipe on
my Jeep before heading out. The weather was perfect, except for
a snow shower, the people at Paragon were great, everyone was really
cool, and we raised a bunch of money to help out the folks in New
York City. What more can I say?
