Car Show August 4th
Members of the Rotary Club of Glenside volunteer their time to make the 14th Annual “Cruizin’ Glenside” Show, held Aug. 4 on Easton Road in Glenside, a success. Every year at the community event, Glenside Rotarians help organize and distribute trophies to the winners as well as any other necessary jobs.
The “Cruizin’ Glenside” Show was founded by the Greater Glenside Chamber of Commerce as a car show 14 years ago, and now features cars, trucks, motorcycles, military vehicles and helicopters, and musical entertainment. The event is organized and run by the Greater Glenside Chamber of Commerce, with volunteer support from the Rotary Club of Glenside.
Proceeds from the fund-raiser support the Chamber’s Young Entrepreneur Scholarship fund as well as other programs. The scholarship awards one local student a $3,000 scholarship every year.
