Practicing the Golden Rule has won the Rogue Valley Street Rods (pictured) of Medford, Oregon, and three other car clubs, the Eagle One Golden Rule Award for outstanding community service programs in their region during 2008.
Other winners were:
Southern Cruzers, Lakeville, MN - Midwest
Corvette Club of Delaware Valley - East
Victory 7 Club of Richmond, VA - South
In recognition, Eagle One and associate sponsor Valvoline made cash donations to a favorite charity of each club, provided each with a generous supply of appearance care products and motor oil for fund-raising events, and a custom-designed trophy.
The grand prize winner for the most compassionate achievements among the four clubs went to Victory 7, which received $1,500. A $500 donation was made for each of the three other clubs.
"Eagle One has been proud to recognize and reward car clubs for 16 years for the work they perform in their community while actively engaged in the preservation of one of our country's greatest heritages, the automobile," said Lorna Willis, Eagle One brand manager.
