About the event
Save the date - October 8th for a special Car Show Fundraiser benefiting Michael Riley (Ret. St. Augustine Disabled Firefighter) & Additionally we will be honoring all First Responders in our community for the dedicated support they provide to all of us. We know this event is a ways out but it's very near and dear to our heart and we want this to be the BIGGEST event of the year! If you’ve lived in St. Augustine for a while you might remember the gas station explosion that happened on August 19, 2011. Michael Riley was one of the first responders on the scene to battle the fire and little did he or his family know, that battle would last long after the flames were out. Over the next 6 years Michael’s health drastically declined due to the exposure of the toxic chemicals caused by the explosion that day. Michael is now suffering from early onset Alzheimer’s, Encephalopathy, Parkinsonism's Disease, and is now in palliative care. We'll be sharing more about the fundraiser for Michael and his family in the weeks to come…his son Sean is part of the CCM family - handling our drone photography and YouTube Channel among many other things.
