Wild Side Performance has donated a $500 certificate for a car tint job to benefit The Morgan Project Graduation event. Raffle tickets are $10 and information is in the photo. Team project graduation asked us to share the post. Here’s more information about Project Graduation…

For almost 40 years, the Senior class at The Morgan School (Clinton, CT) has enjoyed an incident- and substance-free graduation night and we would like to continue this tradition for the Class of 2027. The Morgan Project Graduation Committee is underway planning a special and memorable event for our Seniors.

Morgan Project Graduation is a fully parent-run initiative to raise the funds for a safe, substance-free graduation event for our high school Seniors. The event is an adult-chaperoned, overnight, Senior-only celebration at a “top secret” venue. Students are transported by bus after graduation to the surprise destination where a variety of activities, entertainment, and food await them. It is a wonderful opportunity for the Seniors to celebrate all their hard work over the last four years before they go off to pursue their future endeavors.

Morgan Project Graduation receives no funding from the Clinton School District; it is fully funded through fundraising and donations.

Today we say goodbye to a truly special member of our local car community, Bill Raccio. Bill Raccio

For many years, Bill was much more than a car enthusiast—he was one of the people who helped bring our entire community together. He seemed to know every classic and hot rod in the state, who owned them, their history, and, of course, what was under the hood. If you had a question about a car, there was a good chance Bill knew the answer—or knew exactly who to ask.

One of Bill’s greatest contributions was creating the Ted Aub Car Show, held in memory of his dear friend Ted. What made the show so special was that it wasn’t just about beautiful cars and great people. Bill made sure that the proceeds went to support different veteran organizations throughout Connecticut, turning his love of the car community into something that made a real difference in the lives of others.

That says a lot about the kind of person Bill was.

He loved cars, but he loved the people and the friendships that came with them even more. His knowledge, enthusiasm, generosity, and friendship will be deeply missed.

The local car community has lost one of its own, and we are all a little smaller for it.

Rest easy, Bill. Thank you for the memories, the stories, the friendships, and for keeping the spirit of our car community alive. Your legacy will continue every time we gather, fire up an engine, and share our passion for these cars.

Our deepest condolences to Bill’s family, friends, and everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Cruise on, Bill. 🏁❤️

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved friend and car enthusiast, Louis Laviola.

Lou, along with his partner in crime, Marlene, was truly the life of every Cars and Coffee event. Whether they were cruising in their classic Mercury Montclair or lighting up the show field, their presence brought a special energy to our community. Louis was a regular at local car shows, and his stunning ride always seemed to catch the judges' eyes—he walked away with his fair share of trophies, but he’d tell you it was about the people, not the hardware.

Beyond the cars, we will miss Lou for his kindness, his sharp humor, and that signature wit that kept us laughing with a wise crack or two.

Lou, you’ll be deeply missed on the cruise and at the shows. Thank you for the laughs, the stories, and the memories. Rest easy, friend. May God Bless you, Marlene and your family.
