Wow! What an incredible week (and a bit) for #AMTADriverAppreciationDays 2024! We have just wrapped another amazing day for Day 6 in Leduc. We have said it many times, but we can't say it enough: a massive thank you to our sponsors, the Alberta Sheriffs, and our fabulous volunteers for coming out to help us pack and hand out goodie bags to the commercial drivers on our roads. We couldn't do what we do without you. #ThankATrucker
