Food Truck Festival

1

The 3rdAnnual Evansville Food Truck is coming back to Bosse Field on Sunday, June 2nd, 2019.   Several food trucks are traveling from surrounding states to bring the area an exclusive day in culinary creations, a live music festival with numerous acts and a day of community celebration.

This year’s beneficiary is Gilda’s Club of Evansville.  Gilda’s Club will receive 10 percent from all ticket sales from the event.  The organization will also offer a half-pot drawing, host a survivors’ “Walk the Bases” and offer additional activities geared towards National Cancer Survivor Day.

“We believe no one should go through cancer alone. We’re a community of caring individuals who meet survivors, family, and friends at their point of need – whether it’s social support, education, resources/referrals or helping live a healthier lifestyle. Our program is proven to reduce anxiety, stress and to improve quality of life. We serve anyone impacted by cancer – men, women, children – all free of charge,” said Amy Mangold, development director for Gilda’s Club Evansville.  “We are honored and thrilled to be the beneficiary of this year’s Food Truck Festival proceeds. Fun was the foundation of Gilda Radner’s life, so it is fitting that we partner with an entertaining event filled with delicious food, great music, and activities. EvansvilleEvents.com recognizes that Gilda’s Club is 100% locally funded and wants to help us make sure that no one faces cancer alone. Join us as we support local cancer survivors, their families, and friends.”

“Unfortunately, cancer still continues to play a big part in our community and so many are affected in some way.  With your attention and support, we can do much more to help those directly affected by this deadly condition.”  – Joe Notter, Evansville Food Truck Festival organizer and president of EvansvilleEvents.com.

  1. Gilda’s House is a good charity, but instead of pimpimg this for-profit, put-money-in-the-pocket-of-a-not-very-well-thought-of-promoter event with very few, if any, local food trucks, why aren’t you promoting the local Truckin’ with the Music Food Truck Festival on June 2? Truckin’ with the Music takes place on June 2 on W. Franklin Street in front of the EVPL West Library and features local food trucks (the local food truck owners don’t want anything to do with the Bosse Field event promoter), is free of charge, and the monies raised support Chemo Buddies, a local cancer support charity.
    You’ve hitched your horse to the wrong wagon.
