JJ's Hog Roast was started in 2016 as a way to remember and honor the loved ones that we have lost. Over the years it has become so much more thanks to everyone who attends year after year, the amazing sponsors that have partnered with us, and the awesome volunteers that dedicate their time to set up, work, and clean up over the weekend of the event.

In 2017 we decided to expand the event and add a cause, a charitable organization that helps most everyone and their families in the toughest of times. Hospice of the Red River Valley seemed like an obvious choice after thinking of how their services helped with JJ's grandma's final days, and being there for JJ's family after he passed on as a young man.

We are honored to provide entertainment, car show, mud races, silent auction, and a hog roast dinner to help celebrate JJ’s hospitable, and enthusiastic personality.  ​

Show and Shine Car & Bike Show

Presented by Muscatell Auto & Red River Adventure
In 2017, we implemented a Show and Shine Car & Bike Show to our Saturday festivities.  JJ's 8th Annual Show and Shine proved to be a success with so many vehicles that we will need to expand for next year.  There was a fantastic selection of vehicles that showed up for the show, and there were many vendors that were gracious enough to donate door prizes.

JJ's ATV/UTV Mud Drag Races

Presented by ???
In 2022, we implemented a JJ's ATV/UTV Side x Side Mud Drag Races to our Saturday festivities, and it was a HIT! Volunteers with the Roamers 4x4 Lions Club set up the track and there was a good amount of racers that signed up ahead of time. Spectators, young and old, lined the fence to watch the mud fly and enjoyed every race.
