National Truck Driver Appreciation Week

We hope you had a safe and relaxing Labor Day Weekend and that you were able to spend some quality time with family and friends.


We also hope you are getting some friendly smiles, nods and handshakes during National Truck Driver Appreciation Week. We sure appreciate the job you do!


And, we’d like to remind you that school is back in session. That means school buses and school children are back on the road.


Every school year we hear about crashes involving a school bus. Unfortunately, some involve big trucks, too.


According to the American Automobile Association (AAA) all drivers need to be extra aware this time of year. AAA has these back-to-school safety reminders for all drivers.

National Wreaths Across America Day December 17, 2022

Each December on National Wreaths Across America Day, our mission to Remember, Honor and Teach is carried out by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery, as well as at more than 2,500 additional locations in all 50 U.S. states, at sea and abroad.


Each year with the help of hundreds of volunteer trucking companies, Wreaths Across America is able to honor our Nations Fallen Heroes. The efforts of the generous trucking company owners, the drivers, and all their employees make the mission possible. The trucks are responsible for carrying thousands of Veteran’s Wreaths to a growing number of participating cemeteries across the United States. These fine people make up our “Honor Fleet”.


Join us by sponsoring a veterans’ wreath at a cemetery near you, volunteering or donating to a local sponsorship group.

“Thank you, to all the transportation companies that make our goal possible.”  - Wayne Hanson, WAA Board Chairman
