The annual Texas Corvette Association (TCA) Open Car Show has attracted car enthusiasts from across the state, the country, and from places as far away as Australia since its inception in 1992. Since 2000, the TCA has dedicated itself to supporting SJRC Texas as its charity of choice and the recipient of funds raised from the annual car show. SJRC Texas serves the San Antonio, New Braunfels, and Bulverde communities by offering a safe haven to children who have suffered trauma, abuse and neglect. Participants in the TCA Open Car Show make an important contribution in support of those initiatives, while enjoying a popular Fiesta® San Antonio event. In recent years, the car show has attracted over 300 entries and hundreds of visitors annually to its Texas Hill Country location at the Main Plaza in Boerne, Texas. The 2020 show will be held on April 17th, and all proceeds from the show and the silent auction will benefit SJRC Texas.
