  • The family-friendly event invites truck, jeep, and classic car enthusiasts to come together for a day of fun, competition, and camaraderie, all while supporting a worthy cause.

The “Truck Yeah!” event, which is free to attend, offers an exciting opportunity for vehicle owners to showcase their trucks, jeeps, and classic cars. Participants can register their vehicles now to join in on the fun and friendly competition. All entries will be assigned a category and number, with winners chosen through a public voting process.

  • Conrad was born on December 15, 2021, with Stage 5 Kidney failure, and has been a fighter ever since. His family is currently working with COTA to help secure a kidney transplant for him.
