"To have all these lovely ladies on board just makes a massive difference for us and we couldn't do what we do without the volunteers.
"With one in three Kiwis affected by cancer, it's a massive message we need to get out there for people to look after each other and get tested and help fundraise and the more we fundraise the more we can pour back into the community.
"We are really grateful for what the volunteers do, the time they give, it's just a huge community effort and we are very grateful.
"This is the first year we have utilised the Vintage Car Club and they are just so excited to be on board. We have 12 volunteers from them and six drivers."
Rotorua Vintage Car Club captain Angie Brunton said they were asked by the Cancer Society to help out and they thought it was something they could do.
"It's very important, just this last week I've heard of three people who have been diagnosed with cancer.
"I think it touches everybody and my husband lost a daughter to breast cancer 10 years ago so it's always there on your mind and every little bit we can do to raise awareness and funds is great."
