We are excited for Uncle Rod's Inc., an Elk Rapids business, and Do a Little Good, an Antrim County nonprofit, to partner together to revive the Wheels & Keels Machine Show for the second year! It's a chance to not only display cool machines you own, but also to see what others have, enjoy a family-friendly day of fun, eat some great food, and socialize.
The proceeds from our Wheels & Keels event will be donated to Do a Little Good. This local nonprofit helps kids, pets, vets, and families in our Northern Michigan region. We love the work they do and can't wait to see what they do with the event's donations.
Hi, I am Annie, your 2024 Miss Wheels & Keels. I will serve as an ambassador for this great community event that will raise money for the non-profit, Do a Little Good.
This event is important to me because it is a chance for the community to celebrate! At Wheels and Keels we honor both the exhilirating history of classic machines and the endless support of our community members. This car show is truly a work of art and love, and I'm grateful to celebrate both within the community!
Currently, I am pursuing a Doctorate in Physical Therapy, staying active coaching girls gymnastics, and volunteering for great organizations like Do a Little Good. The money raised from the Wheels & Keels Machine Show will fund their projects, like:
Eliminating student lunch debt from all of our local schools
Supplying basic household necessities and food staples to veterans transitioning from homelessness
Stocking food, clothing, and hygiene pantries in area schools for students in need
Helping out with all types of urgent needs in our community
I am so pleased to serve this year and help my community, and I look forward to meeting all of you at the Wheels & Keels Machine Show on June 29, 2024, where I will be interacting with the kid's scavenger hunt, serving up concessions, selling 50/50 tickets, choosing my own special winner for my trophy, and so much more!
