More than 120 different trucks will roll up to the second annual Wellsford Lions Roaring Truck Show taking place at Centennial Park on February 28.
Truck registration is $20 and includes lunch and the Truck of the Show presentation and prize giving is taking place at 2 pm with more than 15 awards up for grabs including “Peoples Choice”.
A variety of vehicles will be on display by 9.30am including logging trucks, stock trucks, water carriers, and so forth.
‘Doug the Digger’ will make an appearance , and other entertainment includes the Pat Mac Band.
Show co-ordinator Bruce Wilson told Stuff that the Lions decided to run the show annually after last year’s inaugural event produced overwhelming support, success, and feedback.
More than $10,000 was raised last year for the Order of St John in Wellsford and this year both the Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust and the Northland Emergency Services Trust rescue helicopters will be the event’s beneficiaries.
Public entry to the show is a gold coin donation, and the public and interested truck drivers can send inquiries to
