Knights of Old Ltd & TruckEast Ltd Ride and Drive Family Day

On August 17th 2008, four hundred customers and staff attended the TruckEast Limited and Knights of Old Limited Ride and Drive Family Fun Day at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground, Lutterworth.

10 Scania trucks were available throughout the day for all attendees to drive, including a hugely popular fire engine provided by Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service and a Scania Irizar Coach provided by Scania Bus and Coach.

A wide range of family activities were also available including laser clay shooting, 4 x 4 off road driving, archery, a motorcycle display team, owl rescue display, football coaching skills and children’s races, face painting and balloon modelling and a nearest the pin golf green provided by Scania (Great Britain) Limited.

The event turned out to be a real experience for all concerned. Representatives from MacMillan Cancer Support attended the event and provided a MacMillan and Tombola stand. All proceeds on the day were donated to MacMillan Cancer Support with a total of £870 raised. "We are truly delighted to be asked to join you yesterday and thoroughly had a super time. We met such lovely warm and generous people, we would love to come along again. The money raised will pay for a nurse for 6 days and this would equate to 12 clinic sessions and also 1-1 support," said Lisa Donald, Fundraising Manager for Northamptonshire.
