The much-anticipated “Truck Yeah!” truck show is set to make a grand return to The Block on Eglin Parkway in Fort Walton Beach this Saturday, April 1, 2023, from 10 am to 2 pm. 

  • 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. Each attendee will receive a voting slip, allowing them to select their favorite vehicle in each category.

In addition to the truck competition, the event will feature a tailgate party, providing the perfect backdrop for a day of family fun and entertainment. The organizers have created an environment that caters to all ages, ensuring everyone can enjoy the festivities.

More importantly, the “Truck Yeah!” show is dedicated to a noble cause. The event organizers have announced that 100% of the proceeds will go to the Children’s Organ Transplant Association (COTA) in honor of Conrad Williams, affectionately known as The Rad Kidney Kid. 

  • 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.

The “Truck Yeah!” show presents an opportunity for the community to rally together in support of a local family in need, while simultaneously enjoying a day of fun and friendly competition. Mark your calendars and bring your family and friends to The Block on Eglin Parkway in Fort Walton Beach this Saturday, April 1, 2023.
