Automotive Addicts was on sight tonight at the Malone Air Charter at Craig Municipal Airport for the Reception festivities to kick off Excellerate Jax’s charity drive that will get into gear with an exotic car drive Saturday morning, October 17th around 9am.
The one-of-a-kind Police escorted drive around I295 in Jacksonville, FL will help the enrichment that the Police Athletic League (PAL) of Jacksonville instills in youth through educational, athletic and leadership programs.
EXCELLERATE
Sissine’s Office Systems Presents EXCELLERATE, a one-of-a-kind Police escorted ride where the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office will shut down I-295 for high-end cars to take a lap around the beltway in the name of charity. The public can get in on the action the night before at an exclusive EXCELLERATE pre-party at Malone’s Air Charter at Craig Municipal Airport. Check out all the hot cars before they hit the road, meet the owners, enjoy some great food and spirits, and support a great cause.
THE CAUSE
The Police Athletic League (PAL) of Jacksonville enriches the lives of children by creating positive relationships between law enforcement officers and the youth of our community through educational, athletic and leadership programs. Serving up to 1,000 children after school each day, from some of the most underserved neighborhoods in the city, PAL turns the prime time for juvenile crime into a safe learning time for young people to develop leadership skills from positive adult role models and greater respect for the law.
THE NEED
What started in the trunk of one police officer’s car has grown to serve more than 2,200 children each year. In a time when families are increasingly unable to instill a proper appreciation and respect for the law, when parents are working harder than ever with less time than ever to even put food on the table, communities must come together to reach more children. With your support, we can continue to keep kids out of trouble, building good citizens, more successful adults, and a better future for all of us.
