Revved engines and local bands helped draw in food donations for Sunday's 2nd annual Motorcycle Bike Show.
Organized by the On A Mission For The Mission Charity Foundation, the event asked for nonperishable food items or personal hygiene products to support food banks in the area.
'All the money we get throughout the year goes to the Windsor downtown Mission food bank, Windsor Youth Centre food bank, and we're going to be expanding our donations to include some of the food banks in the county,' said Shaun Fathers, the foundation president.

Gathered outside the Moose Lodge in Windsor, vendors set up tents, motorcyclists popped their kickstand, and food sizzled on the grill.
As one of the many annual fundraisers put on by the foundation, Fathers noted the donations provide a 'great relief' to the families in need across Windsor-Essex.
'Because right now the food banks are empty, so anything that we can do to restock those shelves could possibly save somebody from losing their house,' Fathers added.
