SPECIAL FEATURE 1
The North Coast Petrolium Casino Truck Show With the disappointment of this years North Coast Petroleum Casino Truck Show being cancelled for 2020, the count down begins for the 7th of August 2021 when the event will hopefully return. Darren Goodwin has seen the event grow over the last nine years and appreciates the continual support shown from Richmond Valley Council and all the sponsors who get behind the event year after year. Next year will be bigger and better with the show celebrating their 10th year, welcoming one and all to support and appreciate the trucks and people who make this event such an awesome experience. Although we can’t celebrate the North Coast Petroleum Casino Truck Show in a physical sense this year, it is still important to keep the event alive and look forward to the 7th of August 2021.
Major Sponsor of the Casino Truck Show
What does the truck North Coast Petroleum Casino Truck Show mean to you? At this time, it is important to support the transport industry and the people who drive the trucks, servicing Australia. – Darryl McMullens, McMullens Freightlines It’s a day for drivers to get together and appreciate each other’s trucks while involving their families and friends. – Mick Clark, Brown and Hurley’s It’s a great fun day out with like-minded people. Very proud to be a part of the event each year. – Scott Anderson, Anderson Tipper Hire It a relaxed day out with mates, keeping the dream alive and keeping the transport industry alive. – Jade Rose, Ballina Pumping Service I look forward to it each year to catch up with mates I don’t normally have to see and to check out all the gear. – Gary, Boonah Carrying Co It’s a bit of hype for the town and something we enjoy being a part of each year. Its important to keep it alive even though we can’t have it this year. – Scott Harvey, SRH Milk Transport It’s a good time and brings us truck drivers all together. – Zane Rose, All bulk Haulage The main reason I go to the Casino Truck Show is to catch up with mates and blokes who I haven’t seen in ages. I’ve been driving trucks for 40 years and I’ve met a lot of great blokes that I don’t get to see too often. Even the retired blokes come along so it’s a chance to catch up with them as well. – Tony Heldt, Coastline Haulage
