The First Ever Elite Truck Fest Was a Success in 2025!

Thank you to all the attendees, volunteers, and sponsors who came together to help make the first ever Elite Truck Fest such a huge success! We are proud to share that we raised $8,500 to present to this year's beneficiary, BeauPros - a pre-apprenticeship organization that aims to provide quality educational and hands on training to Beaufort County highschoolers that desire to enter full-time into a career in their respective trade.
