Corvettes on the Columbia
Right here in Eastern Washington, we have one of the largest car shows in the Northwest, but it is way more than a car show because it all benefits our local Make-A-Wish. In our community, children are battling critical illness, and Make-A-Wish's mission is to bring hope to those children and families through wishes. Over 35 kids are waiting for wishes locally, and the community stepped up to help work toward granting every wish. Our community's generosity will help get the wishes granted even more quickly.
You came out in full force to support Make-A-Wish Alaska & Washington. Local businesses helped sponsor the event and made donations to Make-A-Wish. The Three River Corvettes Club members and clubs nationwide supported and enjoyed the event. We are also incredibly grateful to all our customers and community leaders in the Tri-Cities and Yakima who stepped up to help these kids. August through September 15, McCurley Dealerships promotes Wheels Make Wishes Come True. A portion of every vehicle sold at McCurley Dealerships goes towards the donation total benefiting these local kids. This event brings a ton of excitement to our team and customer base every year. We get to share the stories of hope and are always amazed by the personal connections and impact that Make-A-Wish has here in our home.
Everything comes together with the three-day Corvette of the Columbia Event. The event's centerpiece is a car show on the river, but the heart of the event is raising money for local kids. Through a silent auction, multiple concerts, and many opportunities to contribute, we can present the local Make-A-Wish team with a check to grant more wishes. The total donation from our community, the event, and the generosity of our community totaled $136,694.67. Thank you, Tri-Cities and Yakima, for supporting these wonderful kids!
