The Newport News Sheriff’s Office Car and Bike Show is back after a two-year break due to COVID in the community. Event raises money for the NNSO’s Project Lifesaver program.
Vintage cars and motorcycles and new models, too, will be on display at Todd Stadium on Sept. 11 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will also be prizes, a 50/50 raffle, DJ music, and more.
All money raised goes to the NNSO’s Project Lifesaver program. Sheriff Gabe Morgan covers all of the costs for qualified Newport News residents who may wander from home due to disorders like Alzheimer’s, Autism, Down syndrome or traumatic brain injury. Clients wear a transmitter bracelet on their wrist or ankle. Trained Sheriff’s Office personnel respond when a client is reported missing. The NNSO’s program has a 100% success rate in safely returning people to their loved ones.
On-site registration begins at 10 a.m. The entry fee is $20 per vehicle plus two pet food items to benefit the Peninsula Regional Animal Shelter.
The show is free for people who want to see the vehicles and talk with the owners. Donations are appreciated. Anyone with questions about the show, registration, and Project Lifesaver can e-mail Capt. Gross at patrickkl@nnva.gov or call 757-926-3991
