Mother’s Day Truck Convoy
And of course, since we live in Lancaster County, there is always the Mother’s Day Truck Convoy that you can enjoy on Mother’s Day! If you haven’t heard about this, I definitely recommend checking it out. You can park your car and watch anywhere along their route (Route 222, 272 and 322)—we did this last year and loved it. The ticks were too bad for us to sit in the grass, so we stayed in our vehicle and opened the back door to watch with all the seats down.
You can also join the Make A Wish Truck Convoy party at the Burle Business Park, 1000 New Holland Ave, Lancaster. They’ll have games, live music, great food, 500 big rigs and all proceeds go toward granting wishes!
