    Sounds like this could be a lot of fun (while being a great charity event on the side).

    Wish I could make it, but I'll be out of town. :(

    I will most definitely be participating in this event... I'm also going tobe working with Sherry on additional fundraising opportunities for this as well, so I encourage everyone else to participate as well. This is a fantastic cause - for those of us who don't like to run, etc - this is our way to help out and express our passion for our vehicles!

    Who's game for getting together caravan to go at the same time? Suggestions?

    Everyone - for those that can't make it out to this but want to make a contribution - I will be accepting donations/contributions on the Saturday event I'm hosting at Andretti. Details about the event can be found at: http://www.wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15262

    Rather than thread jack though - seriously guys - this is a great opportunity - I've made contributions several years to the March of Dimes and will continue to do so in the future. Make it out on Sunday - if you can't - make it out Saturday and donate some money to the WRXAtlanta team! We all know WRXAtlanta's a fantastic club in Atlanta - let's see if we can't also make WRXAtlanta the biggest contributor out of the above participants (hey, nothing wrong with a little competition eh?)!

    See you all there!

    We need to know who is registered and if you have any guest.

    If you could call Sherry Richardson or Jonathan Hall at 770-427-1745 it would be greatly appretiated.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Torque for Tots was a huge success. Everyone had a great time. We raised about $3800 for the March of Dimes. Thank you.
