The event was attended by IBM employees, retirees and their friends and family. They voted for the most unique car/motorcycle. The winners received a trophies, first place was, Mike Nason for his 1968 GTO, second place Glenn & Virginia Turner for their 1938 Plymouth Coupe, and third place to Jeremy Seerveld for his Shelby Cobra. There were also door prizes that went to:Chris Ferguson, Greg Nelson, Paul Gagne, and Mark Bullock. Between the registration fee and the purchase of tickets to vote, IBM employees raised over $850.00 for Good News Garage.
