Our Rock-A-Thon & Car Cruise are back and bigger than ever! This year we are combining these two events into ONE Rockin’ Car Cruise! This event is one-of-a-kind, rocking good time for people of all ages, bringing hundreds of community members together to raise money for a good cause.
On this day of fun, patrons pay to “show their car at the cruise” and attendees come to view the cars, bid on silent auction items, and eat great food all while rocking out to Country & Gospel Singer, John Schmid. Our residents will be rocking to raise money for our benevolent care. Please consider sponsoring a resident!


Thank You to our 2023 Sponsors
The Car Cruise raises funds for United Zion’s benevolent care which provides resources enabling United Zion to continue the same quality of care and daily assistance, should a resident’s own resources become inadequate to cover the full cost of care.
