ATASCADERO — On Thursday, Nov. 17, at 6:30 p.m., the Mid State Cruizers met for their monthly meeting at Round Table Pizza. During their 31st Annual Mid State Cruizers Car Show in August, the local car club raised a total of $10,000 for local charities, which they handed out to the nonprofits at the start of their meeting.
“We are actually able to give $10,000, the highest we’ve ever been able to give to 10 wonderful charities. That’s the one thing we get to do; we get to support them in the wonderful work they do for our community,” said Mid State Cruizers President Roy Barba at the meeting.
The Mid State Cruizers took nominations for charities back in September. Every year they pick 10 San Luis Obispo County charities to support, and at their October meeting, they voted, and their top 10 charities were chosen to receive $1,000 each. A total of 23 local charities were nominated this year. (Read More)
