Our Community Focus and Activities

Community involvement is at the heart of Tararua Rodders Inc, with initiatives designed to support and connect with locals in meaningful ways. We organise trips away to other hot rod clubs, promoting networking and shared enthusiasm across regions. Additionally, our members volunteer cars for transport to senior citizens' homes and school balls, providing reliable and nostalgic rides that bring smiles to many. The annual Xmas show is a highlight, spreading holiday cheer while generating profits that are reinvested into the local community. Every two years, we host a major annual show at Levin Events Centre, drawing crowds to celebrate classic cars and hot rod culture. These efforts underscore our commitment to being an active, supportive presence in Horowhenua and beyond.
