“We're just a bunch of car club people that wanted to do something good for the community. This time of year, we all don't have a lot of money out of pocket, most of us live paycheck by paycheck but you look at these people out here and most of them live plate by plate,” Jeremiah Becker, Vegas Style Car Show president, told KSNV.
This cookout was funded from proceeds raised at the 17th annual Save Our Christmas car show, which was held at Texas Station casino and hotel in Las Vegas.
