The Hazelwood Parks and Recreation Division is responding to the requests of residents who enjoyed last year’s Food Truck Nights and want more. The first of three Food Truck Nights in 2016 is scheduled for Tuesday, June 7, in Howdershell Park, 6810 Howdershell Road. Food can be purchased from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. with entertainment starting at 6 p.m.
Admission is free. Residents and guests will be able to enjoy the best of St. Louis food truck cuisine from approximately eight food trucks while listening to great music. Among the participating food trucks for the June 7 event are Sarah’s Cakes, 2 Girls 4 Wheels, Locos Tacos, Andrew’s Bayou Ribs, St. Louisiana Q, Bombay Food Junkies and Russo’s.
Starting at 6 p.m., patrons will be entertained by America’s Clean Comedian and two-time “Comedy Central” veteran, David Graham, who will present The Lionel Richie Experience under the Howdershell Park pavilion. Accompanied by a 4-member band playing “live” music, Graham will sing some of Lionel Richie’s greatest hits from his early days as a founding member of the Commodores to his current career as a solo artist. Graham’ sounds much like Richie on songs such as “Truly,” “Hello” and “Dancing on the Ceiling.”
Those who attend Food Truck Night on June 7 are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items as a donation for The T.E.A.M. Food Pantry, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary. Based in Florissant and supported by the St. Louis Food Bank, T.E.A.M. helps provide supplemental food and basic household items to needy families in Hazelwood and Florissant. Cash donations will be accepted as well.
