Dozers & Dirt 2026

Click Here to RSVP for Bulldozers & Beer 2026

Join us at the Tracy Clark Aggregate Plant - 22585 E I-80 (off USA Parkway) Sparks, NV 89434 - and get dirty digging in your shovels to support local children battling cancer. We invite kids 17 and younger to operate more than 35 pieces of heavy construction equipment, experience up-close displays of the RAVEN helicopter, a bomb unit, police cars, fire trucks, and more. We are pulling out all the stops to support children in Northern Nevada and are excited about this partnership.

All proceeds benefit the Northern Nevada Children’s Cancer Foundation.

For more information, contact Jessica at 775.825.0888 or jessicalee@nnccf.org to learn more.
