What started as a way to honor Jyan’s memory has grown into something bigger than we ever imagined. ❤️
Because of the incredible support from our sponsors, vendors, volunteers, attendees, donors, and everyone who helped make the 2026 Jyan Waespe Memorial Car & Bike Show a success, we are proud to announce a total of $30,000 in scholarship donations to students in local automotive programs:
🏁 $20,000 — Great Oaks Education Foundation
🏁 $5,000 — Warren County Career Center
🏁 $5,000 — Butler Tech
Our car show is the single largest fundraiser we hold each year, and these donations will directly support students pursuing careers in automotive service... the same passion Jyan had. These donations will be made on specific dates in the near future!
Originally, our goal was simply to provide scholarships through the Great Oaks Foundation. But thanks to the overwhelming generosity surrounding this year’s event, we realized we had the opportunity to expand our impact without reducing the support already planned for Great Oaks. Being able to now support students across multiple local automotive programs and begin expanding our reach across the tri-state area is something we are incredibly proud of.
Jyan would be amazed to see the impact being made in his memory. 💗
To every person who attended, sponsored, donated, volunteered, shared a post, entered a vehicle, or supported this event in any way - THANK YOU. None of this would be possible without you, and we are so grateful.🙏
We’re already excited about the future and look forward to making an even BIGGER impact in 2027. Stay Tuned!🏎️❤️
