Cars And Crafts For A Cure

When Sharon Groff, captain of the Misfits on a Mission Relay For Life team started thinking about a spring fundraiser, she knew she wanted to hold an outdoor event. "Everyone is tired of being cooped up," Groff pointed out, adding that the park event will allow for social distancing and that masks can still be utilized for more protection.

The Cruise In for a Cure Car Show, which will be held in the Terre Hill Community Memorial Park, 210 Lancaster Ave., Terre Hill on Saturday, May 22, will include not just a car show, but also crafters, vendors, and a number of food trucks. Music at the event will be provided by DJ Timbo.

Groff has scheduled the craft and vendor show to open at 8 a.m. Among the many items vendors will sell will be both jewelry and homemade jewelry, sweet treats, popcorn, items made from gourds, and wreaths. Home-based businesses that will be represented will include Tastefully Simple, Norwex, Mary Kay, Pampered Chef, and Usborne Books.

Car show registration will open in the pavilion at 8:30 a.m. There will be a nominal fee to take part in the car show. The car show will open at 10 a.m. and end at 2 p.m. Cars and Jeeps will be awarded prizes in three categories, and motorcycles and trucks will be eligible for first- and second-place awards. Car owners and spectators will have opportunities to vote for cars. A special best in show award, dubbed "Misfits' Choice," will be selected by Relay For Life team members.

In addition, a Chinese auction featuring items donated by vendors and crafters will be held.

To feed hungry attendees, Groff has arranged for a number of food trucks to be on site. Schaeffer's Catering will offer breakfast foods, along with eggrolls and several types of grilled cheese sandwiches. The Crazy Train, which will sell a variety of hot dogs with fixings, will be present, as will Hen House Grilling, Grape Leaf Cafe, and Fink's french fries. Lickity Split will offer ice cream creations for purchase.

All funds raised by the event will go to the American Cancer Society in memory of New Holland police officer Wendell Metzler, who succumbed to cancer in April.
