Why we do it

Every car in the lot helps a student see.

The car show is a fundraiser for Thru Jordan’s Eyes. Every registration, auction bid, and sponsorship goes toward eye exams, eyeglasses, and other vision needs for students in Walker County School System and surrounding areas. So far we’ve helped 90 students see clearly.

Queen’s Choice

One car, chosen by family.

When the car show began, Jordan’s younger brother Braden was given an award of his own to hand out, as a way to be part of the day. He has picked the Queen’s Choice every year since.

Each winner becomes part of the tradition: the Queen’s Choice car is featured on the next year’s event T-shirt.
