Trinity's Float Named Chamber's Choice in Christmas Parade
Posted by Brandy Mcmullen on Tue, Dec 08, 2009 @ 07:39 AM
On Sunday December 6th, Team Trinity participated in the Seaford Christmas parade. The parade theme was "The Gifts of Christmas" so our float theme paid tribute to the American Trucking Association theme, "Good Stuff Trucks Bring It" with a slight modification to "Good Gifts, Trucks Bring Em!"
A flatbed was donated by Art Collins Trucking and driven by TDS driver volunteer, Wayne Wroten. The float held a reindeer-drawn sleigh, presents, a hand made fireplace (courtesy of Mr. Gray O'Bier), tree, and Mrs. Claus (Burnice Lankford). Trinity team members and children rode on the flatbed and walked along the side, singing carols and handing out candy. Riding with the float, Michael O'Bier drove the Trinity/TDS mini semi, powered with a go-kart engine.
Team Trinity & TDS were honored with the Chamber's Choice award. Congratulations to the float committee for pulling off such a fantastic event with creativity and community spirit.
Hats off to committee members: Teri O'Bier, Jenni Myers, Kendra Sellers, Christy Gorski, Adam Miller, Elisha Brown, Burnice Lankford, Stephanie Barrall, and Brandy McMullen. Special thanks to additional float helpers and volunteers: Art Collins Trucking, Wayne Wroten, Darrel Banning, Gray O'Bier, Michael O'Bier, Dustin O'Bier, Megan Lewis, Mr. & Mrs. Jay Zappa, Jeff Banning, Lindsey Banning, Jessica Banning, Jodi Webb, Megan O'Day, Coty Lineweaver, & Robin Hudson.
