Racing fans will have the opportunity to take part in the Honda Indy Grand Prix weekend festivities while helping young cancer patients at Children’s of Alabama during the fifth annual Racing for Children’s Dinner on at the Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum.
Each year, Racing for Children’s honors two Children’s of Alabama patients who serve as honorary crew chiefs for the Racing for Children’s race car and leads the team in the race to cure cancer. Honorary crew chiefs for this year’s event are Lane Clark, 15, of Jasper and Sid Ortis, 15, of Mountain Brook, both patients at Children’s. For more information on their cancer journeys, please visit www.racingforchildrens.org.
Dinner guests will also have the opportunity to tour the museum’s renowned collection of more than 1,200 vintage and modern motorcycles and race cars before dinner is served at 7:30 p.m. A live auction of high-end items, such as VIP hot laps by George Barber, will be conducted by C King Benefit Auctions after dinner.
