Cystic Fibrosis Cars & Coffee and Scavenger Hunt

The Cystic Fibrosis Cars & Coffee and Scavenger Hunt is Saturday from 9am to 11:30am at 983 University Avenue.

We’re having a cars & coffee with a twist: there will be a scavenger hunt featuring the cars in attendance to fundraise for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The scavenger hunt will be on foot, so wear comfortable walking shoes if you plan to do the hunt! Finishing the hunt should only require ~750 steps if you go once through all the cars. Two scavenger hunts will be available, so friends and family can join without having to know car trivia.

Prizes include an alignment + goodies from Trackspec, a GRP gift card, a basket from Sigona’s Farmers Market, and more! This event will be a fundraiser for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, so the scavenger hunt entails a donation. 

Register before the event so that we can include your car in the scavenger hunt! More information and registration at https://passion.cff.org/cars

That quick courtship culminated Wednesday, when Allmendinger was named the new driver of the Shell/Pennzoil Dodge, replacing Busch, who left the Penske team by mutual agreement on Dec. 5.
