Over 5,000 in attendance at Macomb Township Event
AUBURN HILLS, MI (June 20, 2013) Genisys Credit Union, which provides services to anyone who lives or works in the Lower Peninsula, recently sponsored the 14th annual Macomb Township Parks and Recreation Department’s Tons O’ Trucks and Wheeled Wonders event at St. John’s Hospital. Genisys also provided the ever-popular face painting booth and Piston’s Hoops Truck.
“We’re proud to have once again held our annual Tons O’ Trucks and Wheeled Wonders event, which was generously sponsored by Genisys Credit Union and hosted by St. John’s Hospital,” said Michelle Duda, Macomb Township Parks and Recreation Department Program Leader. “We aim to have a wide variety of vehicles and other kid-friendly entertainment – a little something special for everyone.”
The event provided the community the opportunity to get “up close and personal” to over 65 unique and exciting vehicles that they may otherwise only see from afar.
This year, the Schramm Family Farms provided three larger than life pieces of John Deere Equipment, which seemed to be the biggest attraction at the event. Lee Industrial Contracting and the Macomb County Sheriffs Office were also present at the event and had vehicles on display throughout the afternoon.
Over 5,000 attended the festivities this year with over 200 volunteers on hand to help make this year’s event a success. Shuttle buses were constantly on the move, carting busloads of visitors to and from overflow parking.
“This event attracts a large number of people to the Macomb community and is a great way for families to spend the day together,” said Jackie Buchanan, President/CEO.
