Team ScioNRG and SDG East Coast want to put together a charity car show on Halloween. Before we go crazy making arrangements, I want to make sure there is some interest.

Date: Saturday Oct 31st
Time: TBA
Location: Staten Island, New York. I will let you know the exact location.
Charity: NYC Shiba Rescue: Shiba Inu Rescue in New York, Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut

I received a heartbreaking email from the NYC Shiba Rescue. Due to a lack of funds they wont be able to take in any new Shibas. They had a few special needs Shibas that brought the vet bills up to thousands of dollars and once they get that straightened out they can finally take in new Shibas again. So we would really like to help them out if possible. So if you love your Scion and if you are a dog lover please come out.

There will be a donation fee to have your car in the car show. Not sure how much yet. Probably 10-15 bucks.
All the proceeds will go to the NYC Shiba Rescue. Shiba Inu Rescue in New York, Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut

Of course there will be trophies : The usual plus best costume, etc. Raffles, 50/50.



I will have more details shortly.

Is this something you all would interested in?

THis event will be happening in Staten Island....which is only about a half hour from central jersey.

Once we have more details I will post everything.

Hey guys, I just want to give everyone a little more insight of what we are going to try to get going. But first, a little more information on what this is really about... Shibas Inu dogs that have been abandoned, left for dead, or just disowned.

ATTENTION: NYCSR Temporarily Halting Intake of New Rescues

Due to economic hardship, NYC Shiba Rescue will be temporarily halting all intake of new dogs. During this time NYCSR will continue to function to the best of our abilities to meet our goal of rescuing and providing Shibas and Shiba mixes with the best quality of life possible.


Now, what we are looking to do, is get everyone together for a day full of fun, a car show, food, meeting and playing with some Shibas' etc.

What we have in mind, is using a lot by Petco, and getting a few sponsors' for this event that will allow us to give out raffles, give-aways, 50/50s and of course, a fully judged scion car show. As Randi previously said, entry to the car show will be around 10-15 dollars. Furthermore, we are hoping to get Scion Corp involved to make this event even better.

Even if you don't come for the car show, come for the dogs. And if you don't come for the dogs, come for the car show! Its a win-win situation for everybody!

And of course, it will have a Halloween theme, so if you want to dress up your car, yourself, or your dog, then so be it!

IF anyone has any ideas, comments, or anything else, please spit it out! The more we have to work with the better!

thanks everyone!
