Truck show rescheduled

The truck show originally scheduled to take place in downtown Albany last Saturday, Sept. 22, was postponed until the rainout date – Saturday, Oct. 13.

“We were glad to get the rainlast weekend, but it is hard to reschedule around all of the other fall events,” said organizer Robert Snyder. “We will try and get the word out about the date change on social media and in flyers.”

The rainout date falls on Albany’s Homecoming weekend.

“Maybe that will be good for our numbers,” Syder said. “And it will give the Homecoming crowd another activity they can enjoy.”

The contest is open to any classic, hot rod, original, custom, rat rod, 4x4, or other type of truck built in 1987 or earlier.

Registration, with a $20 entry fee, will take place from 8:00 to 11:00 a.m. on the morning of the contest.

“It’s rained on the truck show twice in our three-year history,” Snyder said. “I think local farmers ought to send the car club a donation, and tell us when to schedule the event next year, based on when they need the moisture.”
