A support group for young Australian truckies is calling for entries in its first virtual truck show for charity.

Young Aussie Truckies will proudly donate all profits raised to the Brisbane Convoy for Kids, which raises money and awareness for children’s charities, but like a lot of others, had to postpone their 2020 event due to the pandemic.

“With the threat of missing out on yet another convoy we at Young Aussie Truckies wanted to do our bit to help out with such a great cause while still bringing the industry together, even if it is virtually,” said Young Aussie Truckies’ spokesperson and event co-organiser Adam Craig.

Entries for the virtual show are just $5 a ticket and there are thousands of dollars worth of prize packs up for grabs donated from generous sponsors such as; PACCAR, Penske, Volvo, Truckers Toy Store, Tones’ Truckin Stories and Kendall Trucking & Co.

Categories are Best Kenworth, Best Western Star, Best Mack, Best Euro, and Best Rigid, plus there is also a People’s Choice award, with prizes awarded back to third.

Big Rigs will also publish the winner in each category.

To buy your ticket and for more information on conditions of entry, just visit youngaussietruckies.com or click here.

Entries close on July 1, with this year’s Brisbane Convoy for Kids scheduled for November 6.

Young Aussie Truckies began in 2020 with the aim of opening doors for the younger generation to get their start in the transport industry.

“We believe our driving force aligns perfectly with the ambition behind the Brisbane Convoy for Kids, making them the ideal charity for our donation,” added Craig.
