People could partake of a wide array of food from barbeque to shrimp, to ice cream. Owner Mike Tenvoorde says they wanted to do a fun local event:

"It's just, I think it's because there's so many more trucks out there. Food trucks are just becoming such a bigger deal and we just really wanted to keep it local. There's a lot of outside businesses coming in and you know we've been around for 120 years and we thought what a great time we're local let's get the local food trucks here."
