The iconic Budds’ Collision Pig Roast was back in action this year following two consecutive years of cancellation, courtesy of COVID-19.

The wintry weather did little to dampen holiday spirits as the industry showed up to celebrate. A lavish food spread was set up—as per usual—featuring desserts, mini quiches and an oyster bar.

The event was held in memory of Bonnie Budd and Sam Piercey and run in support of the Sam Piercey Foundation, which launched in 2016 and supports young apprentices in the collision repair industry. The foundation is in honour of the late Sam Piercey, general manager of Budds’ and a long-time columnist for Collision Repair magazine.
