Compass Church Event

September 21,2025

Time 7:30AM-12 PM

OD BettyAnn Moriarty

This is not a CCR sponsored event but we have participated in this event for the past 4 years. One because it is a great event and two it raises money for kids in need. This year's recipients are highlighted below. The event is free, but donations are welcomed. 100% of the donations goes to the kids.

We will meet at the Lowes on Mechanicsville Turnpike (6425 Mechanicsville Tpke) at 7:15 on Sunday September 21st and cruise a short distance down Rte. 360 to the Church. They will try to park together. It is important that you register for this event so the Chruch will know how many parking spaces to save for us. The event starts early and is over around noon with lunch provided. 

it's a great event for a great cause. 

 

John Paul Macri

John Paul is a special 9 year old boy from Chesterfield, VA. In March of 2025, he was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. The local options available to John Paul all had bleak outcomes, leaving the Macri family praying for alternatives. Thankfully, John Paul was able to qualify for a cutting edge CAR-T cell clinical trial in Seattle, WA. They began collecting his t-cells this Summer and he will then receive infusions every four weeks for the unforeseeable future. This trial comes with a heavy financial burden due to long-term lodging, airfare, etc. but with a hopeful outcome to actually shrink his tumor.  

Colson Barlow

Colson is an almost 2 year old boy from King William, VA. He was born with stage 4 chronic kidney disease, with 0% function in his right kidney, and limited function in his left. He also has a very rare genetic disorder called 4p Inverted Duplication Deletion Syndrome—half Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome, half Trisomy 4p. This condition impacts his ability to grow and due to his short stature he is not eligible for kidney transplant or dialysis. Colson’s diagnosis brings new challenges as he grows with increased seizures, infections, and consistent monitoring of his kidney function.  The Barlow family is trusting in God and thankful for the blessing of each day with Colson.

CRR Cruise Event

Tim’s Crabhouse & Restaurant, Lake Anna, October 18, 2025

OD's Steve Dickinson & Carolyn Norman

Tim’s Crablouse, 4nd Annual Cruise Event on October 18 @ 10:00 am is now on the schedule. CCR members are welcome, just sign up on the club website prior to evening of October16, when registration closes. After October 16 and you decide you want to attend send me an email and I will do the rest. Tim’s needs an accurate count as to size of our group attending as they are quite busy on the weekends. As for the early departure time is in order for Tim's to corridor off part of the parking for CCR cruiser's  and protect our special Corvettes.

As to the time to meet and leave are set forth below for late morning cruise for lunch.  Everybody that attended last year had a great time at Tim's and we are certainly welcome back this year.  This is a very easy cruise and great sightseeing on the way to Tim's. 

Details:  CCR members and friends may want to meet earlier. However, the cruise will leave no later than 10:00 am, Saturday, October18, 2025, from the Food Lion parking lot (11272 Patterson Avenue, Richmond, VA, just behind McDonald’s, 11280 Patterson Avenue, Richmond, VA. The shopping center entrance is just west of Lauderdale Drive at a stop light. Since this is a mid-morning event, most coffee drinkers may want to arrive early and visit McDonalds before leaving for Tim’s at 10:am 

 

We will take a quick roll check and have a brief drivers’ meeting at 9:45 am and depart at 10:00 am. The drive to Tim’s will take about 1½ hours, depending on other traffic. and it may be difficult to keep OTC’s out since most of the roads we will travel will be two lane roads.

The planned route will be Patterson, Route 6 West, to Route 522 North, (at a traffic light), to Mineral VA. Tim’s is located north of Mineral, and we should arrive at 11:30 +/_ am. Tim’s address is 200G Boardwalk Way, Mineral VA, 23117, right on route 522 North (right turn in). We will have several turns and traffic lights in Mineral to contend with. Regardless, it should be an enjoyable cruise, weather good, tops down and a lot of fall color.
