Classic Car Cruise-In at Papa Joe’s Produce to Fund raise for Alzheimer’s

Wednesday, August 19th, Papa Joe’s Produce in Manchester will host a Classic Car Cruise-In Fundraiser event that will include classic cars, live music, food, and more.

Marketing Manager for Papa Joe’s Produce and Walk to End Alzheimer’s committee member Jess Patterson has organized the event to fund raise for the Tullahoma/Lynchburg Walk to End Alzheimer’s. “We are changing the event to be totally virtual due to COVID. That being said, I wanted to have an event for the community to be able to fellowship together following Mayor Cordell’s guidelines of course,” says Patterson.

“We will be taking donations throughout the event for The Tullahoma/Lynchburg Walk to End Alzheimer’s. We will also be donating a portion of all profits to the Alzheimer’s Association in efforts to pursue a cure for the disease.” There is a $25 vendor set up fee which will be donated in its entirety to The Alzheimer’s Association.

Local vendors are welcome to set up and sell their merchandise and goods from 11AM-7PM at Papa Joe’s Produce at 5820 Murfreesboro Hwy. Classic car owners should arrive at 10AM to secure a spot for their vehicle. Vendors will set opposite of the parking area in the side lot with the small bridges.

Local music will be on site, and Patterson encourages all local musicians to attend. There is no charge for live entertainers, however it is requested that they do bring their own amps, speakers, and equipment.

Patterson explains, “This is also a phenomenal opportunity for local politicians to speak with our community about their concerns and questions. Local politicians are welcome to attend and campaign as well.”
