Up to 30 food trucks full of unique palate-pleasing cuisine will once again roll into Veteran’s Park, along with live entertainment, a beer garden and more on August 20, 2022, in Springfield for the Springfield Rotary Club’s Eighth Gourmet Food Truck Competition. Wallace & Turner is proud to serve as a Food Truck Sponsor.
Delicious food will include gourmet hot dogs and sandwiches, Pierogies, Empanadas, Cuban, BBQ, Mexican/TexMex, Italian, Carolina Coastal, American, Seafood, Jewish, Farm Raised, Asian, Latin, Mediterranean, and sweets.
Live entertainment will be available from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and the Beer Garden will be serving domestics and local craft brews from Springfield’s own Mother Stewart’s Brewing Company, and for those who don’t fancy alcohol, soda and water is available. In addition to Mother Stewart’s selection of craft beer, alcohol options this year include Michelob Ultra, Bud Light, Budweiser and White Claw.
Attracting over 10,000 guests each year, the competition continues to grow and thrive as Springfield’s must-taste event of the summer. While the competition is a great community event, it’s also a major fundraiser that supports the Rotary Club’s charitable programs. Over the first five years of the competition alone, over $100,000 was raised for Springfield Rotary’s causes from the support of the community. This includes services to people with disabilities, which has increased the number of individuals served by more than 70 percent since the inaugural competition in 2014.
