Football Games
High school sports fans are loud, energetic and with all of their passion, build up an appetite. Sadly, concession stand at games are always the same, with hot dogs, nachos, popcorn, candy and soda, but food trucks are a great way to shake up sports concessions. At halftime of a football game, feed hungry fans with a delectable taco truck or a truck serving juicy made-to-order burgers. Food trucks are also perfect options to make tailgates before football games a “can’t miss” event. Food trucks are the ideal complement to games of cornhole and ladder toss, throwing around a football and socializing with friends and family.
Philanthropy Events
At your next school fundraiser, a food truck is a great way to satisfy the hunger of a large crowd while a portion of profits can go to the charity of your school’s choosing. Many food trucks are willing to work with schools and nonprofits to donate a percentage of profits to a worthy cause. Trucked Up Catering, LLC is always proud to donate to important causes as well. This route to fundraising is guaranteed to be a success and a fantastic complement to any philanthropic event. Whether it be at a 5K run, an auction, a dinner, or a concert for charity, a food truck will undoubtedly attract all guests to indulge in its deliciousness, all while benefiting a great cause.
Dances
There is nothing more fun for high schools students than their homecoming dance. While it can be nerve-racking asking a date and trying to look their best, school dances are a time for all students to enjoy themselves. After a long night of dancing, picture taking and socializing, any teen is sure to be hungry. As students leave the dance, there is nothing that would excite them more than some hot, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies or mini pretzel bites with gooey cheese dip. Whatever the food offering, the students will flock to the truck, devour all of the tasty food and head home full of smiles, and with a full stomach!
Finals
One of the most dreaded and nervous times of the year for any high school student is finals week. However, imagine if before or after their test, a student saw a food truck outside the school serving sweet and savory doughnuts. Or imagine if during the week of studying at school before finals, students found a food truck serving mouth-watering ice cream with delicious toppings. Students would be able to make stress disappear and be able to relax. Finals food trucks are an amazing surprise for students sure to help ease students’ finals anxiety and bring some positivity to a stressful time.
