Why we are DRIVEN...

Many of you already know about Driven1 and the red and grey 1966 GTO that was built by V8TV. Be sure to read the blog to get an idea of what positive things happened at last year’s events. One highlight, which can be seen on the video interview, was the opportunity to talk with some of
the major industry players in the Hot Rod world and have a positive influence on them. Vic Edelbrock, The publisher of Hot Rod, the Ring Brothers and many more.

Since last summer a lot has happened and things are moving along at a quick pace. Driven1 is now a 501c3 non-profit which is a ministry based organization. Our goal is simple – to reach out to the youth of America and “Church of horsepower” people with the love, grace and saving power of our Lord Jesus Christ.

As some of you already know, Driven1 was a "long hauler" on the Hot Rod Power Tour in 2008 and also had a presence at the 2008 Car Craft Summer Nationals. With summer quickly approaching we are right now in the midst of planning this year’s events which tentatively include the following:

- Hot Rod Power Tour June 6-13th
- SonShine Music Festival July 15-18th
- Car Craft Summer Nationals July 17-19th
- Anoka Car shows (every Saturday evening during the summer)
- A Driven1 event together with area churches for one large car show (TBD)

As you can imagine there is a lot of planning, logistics, funding and hard work that needs to be done in order to facilitate this.

We have many financial and material needs, which include updates to the website, more printed marketing materials, video producing and editing, trailer and vehicle vinyl wraps, volunteers for attending the events and much more for this summer. There is plenty to do!!

I am looking for volunteer's to help in the planning and/or execution of this year’s events, as well as the financial needs to cover the costs of these outreach events.

If you are willing to offer help in any fashion, (even if it’s advice) please e-mail me right now!

Thank you for your consideration!
Stefan Svard
