A

 

big party took place on April 22 at the Pensacola 
Harley Davidson dealership on Pensacola Blvd. for the 
purpose of raising money for Pathways for Change, 
ECARE, and N.E. Pensacola Sertoma. Last year’s 

event raised $25,000 for Pathways for Change, over $20,000 for 
ECARE, and over $7,500 for Capstone. 

This year, a donation of $100 for two people earned you a 

chance at winning a current year model Harley Fat Boy valued 
at over $20,000. Refreshments included a bottomless beer and 
wine garden and delicious food was provided by over 15 local 
restaurants that were serving up some of their signature dishes. 
There was a live and silent auction that included a chance to bid 

on two classic hot rods, which many people took advantage of 
for selfies and dreamed of driving the high performance vehicles 
home. One of the service bays was opened up for tables for diners 
and the raffles. There was live music for folks to listen and dance 
and the showroom was open for people to peruse their favorite hog 
and maybe even take a test drive. Charlene McArthur, mother 
of Sertoma organizer Gerald McArthur, drove all the way from 
Tallahassee for the event. In its 13th year Hogfest continues to 
grow and benefit its chosen charities by raising money in a fun 
festive party atmosphere that many people come back for year 
after year.
