The C&C Auto Show Live at Odell Weeks: A Day of Trucks, Technology, and Fun!
This past weekend, the C&C Auto Show broadcasted live from the Odell Weeks Activity Center in Aiken, South Carolina, and it was an event filled with excitement, education, and a whole lot of fun! Hosted by Aaron Clements and roaming reporter James Pate, the show brought together vehicle enthusiasts, families, and industry experts to celebrate all things automotive.
One of the highlights of the event was the incredible variety of vehicles on display. From trucks and Kubotas to military vehicles and bucket trucks, there was something for everyone to marvel at. Special guest Mike Taylor, a seasoned expert in fleet maintenance and military vehicles, shared his vast knowledge and experiences, giving attendees a deeper understanding of the complexities and importance of vehicle maintenance and safety.
The event wasn’t just for the grown-ups. Kids had a blast exploring the vehicles, honking horns, and even participating in the Power Wheels Derby. The derby featured two categories, ages 2-5 and 6-8, with winners in each category taking home a brand-new Power Wheels vehicle. The excitement was palpable as children raced their battery-powered cars, showcasing their driving skills and having the time of their lives.
In addition to the fun and games, the show also tackled some serious topics. Mike Taylor discussed the critical need for preparedness in handling electric vehicle fires, emphasizing the importance of proper training and equipment for emergency responders. This conversation highlighted the evolving landscape of automotive technology and the need for continuous education and adaptation.
Another notable guest was Michael Dunbar from the Aiken Electric Cooperative. As a first-class lineman, Michael shared insights into the vital work of keeping power lines operational and the challenges faced during storms and other emergencies. His stories of community support and resilience during Hurricane Michael in 2018 were both inspiring and heartwarming.
The show also featured Trey Mays from SRM Concrete, who provided a fascinating look into the world of concrete trucks. From the intricacies of mixing different types of concrete to the challenges of delivering it on time, Trey’s expertise shed light on an often-overlooked aspect of construction and infrastructure.
For those interested in luxury and special occasions, Anthony Holloway from SC Express showcased a stunning 30-foot Hummer limo. With its spacious interior, bar, and premium chauffeur service, the limo was a hit among attendees, especially the kids who got to explore its luxurious features.
