RUDOLPH – A dedication will take place during the sixth annual Dick Trickle Memorial Celebration, held May 19, to celebrate the completion of a tribute project honoring the late race car driver.

The design concept includes a life-size bronze statue of Trickle and two half-circle walls – one made of black granite with donor inscriptions and one with words of dedication and over 200 race cars.
The statue will be unveiled at 2 p.m., during the noon – 6 p.m. May 19 celebration.
During his racing career, Trickle competed in the All Pro, ARCA, ARTGO, ASA, IMCA, NASCAR, and USAC circuits. Trickle passed away in 2013.
