The 14th annual Cars & ‘Q for the Cause, an award-winning car show and party hosted by Choate Construction Company to support the Georgia Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF), will return to Choate Construction Company’s headquarters on October 21 with extra fuel and fervor for a cystic fibrosis (CF) cure.
The popular fundraising party, well known for its 100+ unique cars, tasty BBQ, craft brews, and live music, has caught the hearts of more than 1,000 attendees each year. Just last year, Cars & ‘Q raised more than $500,000 bringing the show’s lifetime total to more than $3 million for CF, the progressive genetic lung disease affecting thousands of families in the U.S.
Cars & ‘Q for the Cause promises entertainment for all ages. The car show boasts a variety of prize-winning automobiles, from classic sports cars to muscle, exotic, and rare finds and local firetrucks for the kids. Patrons will enjoy a generous spread of BBQ from Jim ‘n Nicks; continuous pours from local vendors, including From the Earth Brewing, New Realm Brewing Co., Mutation Brewing, and STATS Brewpub, as well as silent auction items, live music, and friendly car competition.
Event founder and coordinator Emily Bridges says this year’s show is especially poignant as the CFF continues to announce massive breakthroughs in drug therapies. “We are witnessing a new chapter of promise for children born today with CF, and Choate is so thrilled to be a partner in fueling that progress,” says Bridges. “However, it’s worth noting not all people with CF are able to benefit from current medications. So, we won’t stop until everyone with CF has access to life-saving treatments. No one gets left behind.”
Cars & ‘Q for the Cause takes place Saturday, October 21, 2023, from 3 to 6 pm at 8200 Roberts Drive in Sandy Springs. Tickets in advance are $20 for event entry and dinner and $40 for entry, dinner, and access to the bar (legal age permitting). Children under 8 are free. Visit www.carsnq.com for tickets.
