About 100 trucks, from semis to pickups, are expected for the Aaron Pedro Memorial Truck Run from Ke'ehi Lagoon to Waimanalo Polo Field beginning at 7 a.m. Saturday.

Pedro, 33 of Waimanalo, was electrocuted Oct. 6 while dumping coral rock on Puhawai Road. A part of his vehicle apparently hit a high-powered electrical wire, knocking it to the ground where he stepped on it.

The memorial will leave Ke'ehi Lagoon at about 8 a.m. and head to Hawaii Kai Boat Ramp and end at the Waimanalo Polo Field where drivers will gather for fellowship and food, said Andrew Jamila Jr., ride organizer.

For information call Jamila at 690-2443.
