Eat more, give more

If there’s a more quintessentially Sacramento pairing than bike riding and food trucks, it remains to be found. The two come together from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday, October 13, at the Truckin’ on the River event at William B. Pond Park (5700 Arden Way in Carmichael). More than a dozen vendors will congregate to raise money for the American River Parkway Foundation. Entry fees—$5 presale online or $8 at the event—go toward the foundation’s efforts to maintain and improve the parkway. Vendors include OMG Burger, Fuzion Eatz, The Squeeze Inn, Java 2u-Mobile Espresso, Pizza Box, Kombucha Kulture, Wicked ’Wich, Willie’s Burgers, Leila’s Lumpia, Mama Kim Cooks, Om Karmabile, Papa Dale’s Drivin’ Diner, Miz Shirley Marie’s Cuisine on Wheels and California Love Truck. The Bell Boys, Musical Charis, Kepi Ghoulie, and KB & the Slingtones provide the tunes. It’s simple, really: Eat a burger and help make the river area a more beautiful place.
