Next Sunday, September 8, from noon to 5 p.m., the AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland and Traditionals Lowrider Car Club will sponsor a car show to benefit members of the Latino community living with HIV/AIDS. The show will feature lowrider cars and motorcycles, hotrods, and an afternoon of activities for kids.

The show will take place in the parking lot of Zone Recreation Center, at West 65th and Lorain Avenue. Call Judy Prince at 216/621-0766 for details.

On Wednesday, September 11, Business Volunteers Unlimited and OCNW Development Corporation will team up to organize volunteer projects throughout the Ohio City area as part of the Participate America program. BVU hopes to contribute 100 corporate volunteers to several project sites in our community, including Fairview Park and Monroe Street Cemetery. Community members are invited and encouraged to join with the volunteers to complete tasks such as litter removal, weeding, and planting.

Details are still being ironed out, but project time will probably be approximately half a day, from noon - 5:00 p.m. Dress in old clothes, and bring along garden tools if you have them. For the Monroe Cemetery Project, donations of perennials and bulbs are also being accepted.

For other project sites, confirmation of schedules, or other information, call Magda Gomez at OCNW: 216/781-3222.
