The 23rd Annual “Truckers Day At The Buck”
Children’s Miracle Network Truckers for Miracle Kids
In our area there is a small town named Buck where Buck Motorsports is undoubtedly the most famous landmark. We can hardly talk about Buck without putting the word “the” in front of it.
So when I told people that we were taking TFC’s International Chapel #1 to The Buck, they knew exactly where we were going.
It was a beautiful dew-laden morning on Saturday when we arrived at the International Office to get the chapel.
After learning about Evening Primrose from Geff & Sharyn Stoner, Cerwin noticed some next to the office.
We got to The Buck just before 8 a.m. and had visitors all day long.
I barely had time to walk around and take pictures. I don’t think Cerwin did get to see the trucks, – we love when we are that busy.
A few came to share situations for which they wanted prayer. Most just had questions about the ministry.
At 1:00 p.m. I left Cerwin and two chaplains (Jake and Bob) with the visitors, got my free meal ticket, and took a walk.
Enjoy!
Notice the bumper. He had it tilted while moving the rig into place.
My favorite truck of the day!
The center is their living quarters, and in they back they haul motorcycles.
Need a job?
Back at the chapel.
By 3:30 p.m. the competition was over and drivers who weren’t staying for the evening truck pulls began leaving.
The arrival of pull trucks added some excitement to the late afternoon.
By 4:00 p.m. most vendors leave to make room for those who attend the evening truck pulls. Chaplains Bob and Jake helped Cerwin take the steps down and put them in the storage bins under the chapel.

What a fabulous, encouraging day!
