2nd Annual Cruisin’ for a Cause Car Show to Benefit St. Joseph’s Center
Marywood University will host its second annual Cruisin' for a Cause Car Show on Sunday, September 22, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., in the Nazareth Student Center parking lot on Adams Avenue on the university’s campus. If needed, a rain date has been set for Sunday, September 29, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m.
Various student and alumni groups, spearheaded by Marywood's SOUL (Students Organized to Uphold Life), are collaborating with both the Pharoahs Car Club and the Coal Crackers Car Club, two of the largest in NEPA, for the event.
All proceeds from the car show will benefit St. Joseph's Center in Scranton. Last year’s inaugural event successfully raised $1,050 for St. Joseph’s. More than 75 cars and unique hot rods from all different generations will be featured at the family-friendly event, which also will feature a bake sale, music, raffles, and more.
