The University of Central Oklahoma will host the BronchoThon Car Show from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., Sunday, March 2, in Parking Lot 53, located west of Chad Richison Stadium on UCO’s campus, with proceeds supporting Oklahoma’s Children's Health Foundation.

The family-friendly, carnival-themed event will feature a car show, carnival games, concessions, food trucks and an enter-to-win table.

"We are so excited as an organization to celebrate our community and Miracle Children with this event,” said Chloe Clinton, a senior psychology major from Edmond, Oklahoma, and executive director of BronchoThon.

“We are so passionate about supporting the Children's Health Foundation and are thrilled to share this passion with the community."

Admission to this event is free and open to the public. For those interested in participating in the car show, the registration fee is $20 for UCO students and $30 for all others. Those interested in participating must register by 11:30 a.m., Sunday, March 2.

BronchoThon is a yearlong philanthropic organization that hosts various events to raise funds for the Children’s Hospital Foundation. The campaign culminates in a dance marathon each year to pay tribute to the countless hours nurses spend on their feet and the continuous struggles sick children face in the hospital. This year’s BronchoThon event will be April 12.

For more information, contact Kate Rauch, coordinator of student engagement at UCO, at krauch1@uco.edu.
