Being stuck at home doesn’t mean a stop to interaction. Coming Saturday, April 11: Jacksonville Cars & Coffee Driveway Edition. 

What’s that all about? Just post a photo of your car to the group’s Facebook page this Saturday morning. 

But there is a catch: A prop to be included in that photo will be announced at 9 a.m. on Friday, April 10. The reason?  So we’re all posting fresh photos taken this weekend–like, to turn the event into an actual event, even if we can’t all get together. 

The prop, we’re told, will be something that most people already have, so don’t worry about having to overnight in some plutonium or a copy of the Necronomicon. Find full event details here and, yes, there will be prizes. 

Entrants are asked to make a donation to a recognized First Coast charity offering Covid-19 assistance–like, they note, the First Coast Relief Fund or the Jacksonville Humane Society. (Do it for the puppies and kitties.)

This event brought to you by Jacksonville Car Culture, Grassroots Motorsports, Hagerty, Cars & Coffee at the Concours and Deremer Studios. 

We’ll vertually see you this Saturday.

We can probably do that, too.

I am working Saturday.  Will you guys post the prop on here so I can take the picture Friday?

This is a rad idea. Do we have to use Facebook?

I quit the "book of faces" years ago.  Is there any other way to play?

I don't think I've logged onto facebook in years, but I may have to just to submit a photo for fun.

Cool to see the interest. I don't think it would count as an official entry, but you could post photos here as well.

I'm still interested in this idea.  I'll try to participate if I have the item in question
