MONSTER TRUCKS AND MOTORCYLE JUMPERS - X-Treme Truck Show Tonight, Local Big Truck Owners Will Participate

(06/04/2004)

The gigantic X-Treme Monster Truck Show is tonight at Wayne Underwood Field.

Local "monster truck" owners will also be competing for $1,000 in prizes.

The show, which also features motorcyle jumpers, is expected to draw spectators from regional counties.

Local and regional residents with their own "monster trucks" will show just how competitive they can be during a Tough Truck Competition by racing over bumps and hills on a dirt track. The Wood Festival committee says they are taking 15 local men or women who want to show off their tough trucks.

A Spiderman movie stunt man will perform and be available for autographs.

Tickets are available from any Wood Festival committee member, on-line at Ticket Web or at Grantsville, Glenville and Gassaway Foodlands.
