Thank you for your support!  In addition to our annual award categories, special recognition awards are selected by club members! The club gets together each year before the show for the "Trophy Build" event using discarded car parts gathered throughout the year. The trophies are a unique one-of -a-kind creation hand-built by the Club Member who selects the car. We call them our "Cool Car Awards" (Just like our regular categories, members cars at the show are not not eligible for awards.)

The Gig Harbor Cruisers membership selected three local community organizations to support through the club's charitable giving fund. Food Backpacks 4 Kids, Gig Harbor Peninsula F.I.S.H. Food Bank and Santa for Seniors were selected by the club to each receive cash donations from the club. Food Backpacks 4 Kids is a non-profit 501(c)(3) charity registered with the Washington Secretary of State. Their charter states they "meet the needs of hungry school children in the Peninsula School District. This program is an effort to ensure families have access to nutritious meals on the weekend." Gig Harbor Peninsula F.I.S.H. Food Bank began in June 1976 and was incorporated in August 1985 from a group of people who believed "that every person in our community is our neighbor. " Neighbor helping neighbor is their motto. GHP FISH is an all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Santa to a Senior is a program to provide presents for Seniors in need during the holidays administered through Home Instead Senior Care. The members of the Gig Harbor Cruisers encourage our friends to give support by sending your contributions to the following:
