Organizer Ray Mascolo says the car show was dedicated to Glen Ciano, a police officer who was killed in the line of duty by an alleged drunken driver in February. The show raised money for Ciano's family and the family of Officer Ken Baribault, who was left partially paralyzed by a convicted drunken driver.

St. Anthony's High School donated the use of its parking lot for the event. According to Mascolo, more than 200 people from around Long Island and the Tri-State area drove their cars to the show.

A Harley Davidson motorcyle was raffled off. Members from both Nassau and Suffolk PD's brought and sold thousands of raffle tickets in support of this event.

 

NCPD members brought their own cars to the event to be judged.

 

A couple NCPD patrol RMP's quickly became a crowd favorite.
