"Wishes on Wheels, Inc. is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization made up of passionate and hardworking volunteers committed to a shared goal - to organize a family-friendly truck convoy and event to bring together families, friends and community members to support children with life-threatening medical conditions. Dozens of local Wish Kids look forward to Wishes On Wheels as an annual tradition that simply can't be missed. Many of the truck drivers volunteer to have Wish Families ride along with them during the Convoy. When the Wish Kids arrive, they carefully select the truck they will ride shotgun in during the Convoy or search until they find "their truck" from the previous year. Upon return to Rentschler Field in East Hartford, there is more fun, food and festivities to help raise money for this important cause."

The CTG has done this event for many years. Usually @INDY??has been the point-person for the event, but this year I'm hoping we can work out alternative arrangements with the event host. We would aim to get to Rentschler Field by 9AM or so as the convoy drives off, and be dressed up ready to interact with kids and families as they get back. Crowds usually die down by 1:30/2:00pm. Parking is free and on-site for volunteers. Blasters are fine.

I will have water and refreshments??on the day, and changing??location is TBC. I'll rent a bloody van if I have to. ;)

BE THERE BY 9AM
