Make-A-Wish Mother’s Day Truck Convoy Celebrates its 29th Year

The Make-A-Wish Mother’s Day Truck Convoy will mark its 29th year and will be presented once again by RoadPro Family of Brands. This record breaking event will bring nearly 600 drivers to Central Pennsylvania to participate in the 26 - mile convoy on Sunday May 13, 2018 with a new theme of “26 Miles – 50 Wishes”. The goal is to raise $500,000, which would be enough to grant 50 wishes to 50 children within the Chapter’s territory that covers the Philadelphia, Delaware and Susquehanna Valley.

The top 30 fundraisers from 2017 will lead off the convoy, with the driver that raises the most taking the honored first truck position. Many drivers will have the distinguished opportunity of having a local Wish Child ride with them in the Convoy. Each year many of our RoadPro Pro Council also participate and donate to the Convoy. The truck drivers are an essential part of the event and each driver must raise a minimum of $100 to participate.

The event will begin at the Burle Business Park in Lancaster, PA and is open to the public. The community is invited to attend the Convoy Carnival that is held from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. complete with games, live music, auctions and delicious local food. The convoy will begin at 1:30 p.m. and travel the 26 miles through beautiful Lancaster County with over 25,000 members of the community lining the roadside to cheer them on.

In addition to sponsoring the event, RoadPro will also donate a prize pack valued at over $500 to be raffled off during the Convoy Carnival with all proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish organization.
