GDC Presents the 2nd Annual Drive for Charity - Sep 27 - 28

September 12, 2008

We're excited to join with the Young Survival Coalition again this year to present our 2nd annual 'Drive for Charity' run to Hershey Park.  The dates for this year's drive are September 27th & 28th.  Last year's run was a BLAST -- we all caravaned out to Hershey, PA (the sight of the 20 exotics on the road was amazing!) and spent the night at the beautiful Hershey Lodge.  Of course there was plenty of roller coaster action during the  (and some ice cream action too...hey, it's chocolate heaven...).  We've reserved a bunch of GDC cars for the event at special rates, and every rental includes free admission & a donation.  Details and full press release below...
