Fundraiser to benefit Boys & Girls Clubs, Fullerton Police Explorers.

 October  3rd : Second Annual Fullerton Car Show in the Downtown Plaza.

Admission is free for the fundraiser, which is expected to draw 6,000 people from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Downtown Plaza. Last year, 3,500 attended the show.

The entertainment menu includes the Screaming Eagles, a classic rock band; a "G-rated" frozen T-shirt contest; and a dunk tank for police.

Fred Johnson, executive director for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Fullerton, said a portion of the proceeds will go toward club programs including the computer lab, learning center, athletics, leadership activities and the Teen Center at the Richman site.

The 40-member Fullerton Police Explorers program will benefit from additional funds. Explorers coordinator Hazel Perez said money will be used for equipment, uniforms and travel expenses for the police academy.

During the car show, the Explorers will be in charge of the Bounce House, dunk tank, opportunity drawing and traffic control.

Heroes restaurant owner Jack Franklyn will provide food and refreshments for sale.
