Festive Feast: Budds’ Collision 13th annual Pig Roast

Oakville, Ontario — Last Friday, more than 300 members of Canada’s automotive aftermarket found themselves in Oakville, at the 13th annual Pig Roast and Christmas Party at Budds’ Collision Services.

Feasting on an array of gourmet appetizers, including fresh-baked beaver tail pastries, an assortment of Canadian cheeses, fresh-shucked oysters, sushi, pizzas and—of course—roast pig.

“This is a good spread,” said industry event veteran Sean Slaven. “It would be easy to get used to this.”

“We pulled out all the stops, and wanted to make it an event to remember,” J.R Martino, Manager of Budds’ Collision Services. “I’m happy so many people have come.”

Of course, the crowds didn’t just come for the food. In the spirit of Christmas, the event invited all those attending to the Sam Piercey Foundation.

Bing Wong, of Canadian Hail Repair, directs the activities of the foundation.

“It is a really important cause, and I think Sam would be proud of how big this has become,” said Wong.

After officially launching in 2016, the foundation serves to support young apprentices in the collision repair industry. The foundation is in honour of the late Sam Piercey, co-owner of Budds’ and a long-time columnist for Collision Repair magazine.

“This would mean a lot to my father,” explained Sam Piercey Jr. “Dad was really believed that the industry needed to attract talented people and that we all had a role to play in that.”

As has been a longstanding tradition at the event, its end was marked by a live performance of bagpipe music.
