Food Truck Festival Coming To Crocker Park

WESTLAKE, OH — The fifth annual Food Truck Challenge will return to Crocker Park on October 5. Attendees can chow down and then cast their votes for the best trucks.

The Food Truck Challenge will be held on Crocker Park's Main Street from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Diners will judge trucks in 10 categories while live music from Billy Morris and the Sunset Strip soundtracks the afternoon.

"We are so excited to celebrate the fifth annual Food Truck Challenge this October with NEOFTA, Cobos Insurance, and over twenty delicious local food trucks,” said Stacie Schmidt, vice president of marketing at Stark Enterprises. “The collaborative efforts of our local area food trucks and the community to support these local businesses and host some healthy competition is the perfect way to end another fantastic food truck season at Crocker Park!”

Besides fan voting, there will also be a panel of celebrity judges gauging the performance of the food trucks in other categories. The guest judges will include WKYC’s Austin Love, Channel 19’s Chris Tonka, Fox 8’s Todd Meany, and Edible Cleveland’s Lisa Sands.
