Lordco Auto Parts is once again on board to support the 2021 91原创 Good Times Cruise-In with a $15,000 cash sponsorship.

Proceeds from this year鈥檚 show will go to the 91原创 Community Support Groups Society and Valley Therapeutic Equestrian Association.

Lordco Auto Parts has been a long-time supporter of Cruise-In, and its charitable giving focus, from the start.

After the cars, the aftermarket auto parts retailer and distributor鈥檚 Garage Giveaway is another show highlight, with the winner of the giveaway receiving everything needed to set up a serious home shop.

Unfortunately, due to the health situation and the short timeline to pull off the event, there will be no Garage Giveaway at this year鈥檚 event.

Sarah Durant, vice-president of marketing, said while Lordco鈥檚 staff are disappointed, the company is still doing everything we can to support Cruise-In and local charities.

鈥淲e are excited to be a part of this year鈥檚 91原创 Good Times Cruise-In and looking forward to bringing back an even bigger and better giveaway in 2022,鈥� Durant added.

In 2018, Lordco raffled off a $24,000 garage prize package with 80 items included, while Aldergrove鈥檚 Zone Garage threw in a $5,000 package in 2019.

Bruce Pihan, Cruise-In鈥檚 vice president, said the sponsorship will help with aspects of the show, and will be augmented by the 50/50 draw.

鈥淧eople will wander through the crowd or we鈥檒l have some at the start and some at the end,鈥� Pihan said. 鈥淲e鈥檒l do the actual announcement at a particular spot towards the end of the day鈥�

He noted that while COVID-19 and the short notice of Cruise-In鈥檚 return halted Lordco鈥檚 involvement, Pihan said organizers are still very grateful for their help.

鈥淟ordco has been good to us,鈥� Pihan assured.

Organizers are still looking for a group of eight or nine volunteers to facilitate the 50/50. A sports team or youth organization would be ideal as extra proceeds will be rewarded for their help.

Anyone interested in volunteering at Cruise-In can contact board member Wayne Patterson invited by calling him at 604-250-5998 or emailing wayne.patterson@sunbeltrentals.com.

鈥淗alf will go to the winner and half goes to charities,鈥� Pihan added. 鈥淏est of luck.鈥�
