Throughout all the fun, Buzzoto’s Inc. and The Hometown Foundation, Inc. raised $1.55 million for Special Olympics and other charities. Special Olympics athletes took a dream 10-mile cruise throughout the Farmington Valley while attendees admired hundreds of exotic and classic cars from every manufacturer ranting from Ferraris to Lamborghinis.
