Diesel Jam 2025 takes over Lackawanna County drive-in
DICKSON CITY, LACKAWANNA COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — A local community event brought out truck owners and truck lovers in droves Saturday afternoon. Diesel Jam 2025 took over the Circle Drive-In on Saturday. It featured trucks, tractors, and big rigs of all shapes and sizes. The Andrew Mazza Foundation organized the event. Mazza was killed in a DUI crash in Susquehanna County in 2016. The event has been held since 2018 as a way to carry on Mazza's passion for diesel trucks and the trades. New law could legalize fortune telling in PA. Each year, the event raises thousands to give scholarships to local students planning to attend trade school. 'It just meant a lot to actually be able to get the scholarship for two years back to back and help me in my college,' Two Time Scholarship Recipient Chad Honeywell said. 'I think he would be very, very proud to see what this show has become and grown into,' Phillip Mazza, Father of Andrew Mazza, told 28/22 News. The foundation gives out roughly 30 $500 scholarships each year to help support the trades and trade students in NEPA. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
