THE rubber on bitumen smoke has settled, and the roar of engines has faded from Hogan Street, Tatura. The organisers of Hussln Charity Car & Bike Show can proudly reflect on an unforgettable fifth and final event.
The final event, held in Tatura on Friday, September 26, drew an impressive crowd with 140 cars, 30 bikes and around 500 spectators filling the town centre. The show raised $5,800 this year for Beyond Blue and Shepparton Foodshare, taking the five-year fundraising total to an outstanding $16,800.
Event organiser and founder Cameron Scorey said it was the perfect way to close out half a decade of community support.
“We couldn’t be prouder of what this event has achieved. Not just the money raised, but the way it’s brought people together,” he said.
“The support from the car and bike community, local businesses and the wider region have been incredible. We had prizes coming in from all over Australia and even from the USA.”
The event’s success wouldn’t have been possible without its generous sponsors, including Aenso Australia, M1 Traffic and Labour, Bertolis Automotive & Agriculture, Shannon’s Insurance, Shepparton Cleaning Service, Greater Shepparton, Ring Brothers, Roadster Shop, 7 Sins Apparel, Bicknell Signs, Lyster Inc, Tatura Motorcycles & Small Engines, Shepparton Test and Tag, Lindsay Customs and Restorations, Low Rollerz Mini Trucks, Lumberjack Creative, FOOTT Waste Solutions, Meguiar’s, AnotherRound Design, Switch Suspension, The Trim Shed and Certified Low Co.
Cameron also extended gratitude to all stallholders, volunteers and those who donated raffle and auction prizes.
“From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years,” he said.
