What could be finer than an elegant evening surrounded by good friends, good wine and fabulous cars - and all for a great cause? Join us on the evening of Saturday, September 15, 2012 at the famed Blackhawk Museum for an opportunity to take home once-in-a-lifetime, “can’t buy” experiences during the live gala auction, along with wonderful treasures at the pre-dinner silent auction. Immerse yourself in one of the most marvelous car collections in America, enjoy a delectable meal with fine wines and take an active stand against Parkinsons disease - knowing that all of your contributions and support that evening will help bring about A World Without Parkinson’s.
Each year, one-of-a-kind auction items offer life enhancing experiences. In previous years these have included: driving an F1 car at the legendary Hungaroring, home to the Hungarian Grand Prix (complete with Renault F1 Team driving gear and personal instruction tailored to the winner’s skill level a driving skills session); a four-day/three night stay at a $7mm custom home/private residence located in picturesque Big Sur with use of a 2011 Jaguar; and various luxury vacation get-away packages to exclusive properties in Munich, Germany, Los Cabos, Mexico, as well as an African Safari, equating to high-end donations -- with all contributions split amongst The Michael J. Fox Foundation and The Parkinsons Institute. Stay tuned to view this year’s collection of unique opportunities.
