The Ohio Cobra Club, Columbus, Ohio;
Each year, on the weekend following Father’s Day, the Ohio Cobra Club, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, sponsors the London Cobra Show and raffle. During the months preceding the show, club members sell raffles chances for a Cobra replica as a means of raising money for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF). The winning chance will be drawn at approximately 9:30 pm on Saturday, June 26 , 2021 . As a result of the 2020 raffle, $267,000 was donated to CFF.
During 2001, a small group of fun loving and benevolent car enthusiasts, each with a cult-like passion for the Shelby Cobra and a desire to help sick kids, joined together to form The Ohio Cobra Club.
The purpose of the club is to promulgate admiration for the Cobra Automobile, regardless of make or type; to support the City of London with the London Cobra Show and to support and raise money for The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. In an effort to assist with the fundraising part of the mission, during 2006, the club attained 501(c)(3) non-profit status.
Throughout the year the club organizes social events such as club meetings, parties, dinners, cruises through various scenic areas in Ohio and helping other club members with their Cobras. Each year, a beautiful Cobra replica is raffled off as the club’s main fundraiser. Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased by club members at car shows and events. Raffle tickets can also be purchased online.
