Enjoy a great car show and a walk down memory lane as you view vintage cars of another era, dream of racing a hot rod or stare in awe of antique cars. Bring the family and enjoy the fall weather of Moore County, all while helping a nonprofit organization.
Friends of Aberdeen Library’s mission is to raise funds to provide expanded library services by renovating a decades old building into a library for the citizens of Aberdeen and surrounding area. In addition, monies will go toward a Reading Garden across the street from the library. Organized in 2014, the group has raised a small percentage of their overall budget of $850,000 and continues to raise money to begin construction.
Sponsorships are available at four levels and sponsors will benefit from the publicity prior to and during the show. For more information, contact Robbie or Jewell Monroe at (910) 281-3092 or Robbie Monroe at (910) 992-4961.
