Truck rides, bouncy castles, face painting, sausage sizzles - Rigs and Rally for Tianajay has something for all the family.

And as well as providing a day's entertainment, it's all about raising funds for two good causes - the family of 4-year-old Tianajay Klomp-Loffley, who has leukaemia, as well as the Child Cancer Foundation.

The event will run between 10am and 2pm tomorrow and feature truck rides, rally car rides, bouncy castles, a cake stall, sausage sizzle, face painting and plenty more.

All the activities on the day are $2.

It is being held at the Toll yards on Pururu St.

As part of the day, Tianajay's father, Jonathan Klomp, and his sister are going to have their heads shaved as a way of thanking everyone for their support.

There will also be an auction with plenty of local businesses supporting the event.

The auction will take place at 1.30pm with the pair getting their heads shaved just before that.

One of the organisers, Chris Mansel, said they were amazed at how many businesses had supported the fundraiser and they were very grateful.

"It's amazing the amount of people who are so generous. We never thought it would turn out so large."

Mr Mansel said they hadn't put a figure on the amount the event hoped to raise, but instead said "anything is better than nothing".

He said goods kept coming in for the auction, with a huge range of items up for grabs, including vouchers for hair cuts and local tourism attractions as well as beauty vouchers.

The event will go ahead rain or shine with most of the activities under cover.
