Make sure you join us Saturday, March 12th for the 5th Annual Festival of Speed. This year’s charity that the Festival is sup-porting is Alice Cooper’s Solid Rock.

Like all great ideas, Solid Rock began on a simple premise. That inside every teen, there is a purpose. It all begins with hope.

A faith-based organization, Solid Rock’s primary mission is to make an everlasting difference in the lives of teens by helping them meet the spiritual, economical, physical, and social needs of at-risk teens (we believe all teens are at risk) in the community by offering a safe, engaging environment during non-school hours –a time when they are most vulnerable to drugs, violence, and gangs.

Maintaining “a teen’s worst enemy is too much time on their hands,” Solid Rock provides the music, arts, vocational programs and fellowship that challenge teens to discover their passion through music, dance, self-expression, and creativity. In a time where public schools are cutting funding for empowering programs like music and dance, The Rock cultivates a love of the arts to inspire teens to embrace artistic excellence and avoid drugs, guns, and gangs.

If you would like to display your vehicle for a $60 donation, please contact Steve at [email protected]. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. If you would like to host a display booth at the event please contact Rus at 480-620-7959.
