This year’s Walcott Truckers Jamboree also included a ribbon cutting to open the new Iowa 80 Trucking Museum Visitor’s Center adjacent to the Oakgrove 70 Petro.
“The Jamboree is a great event for people to feel good about trucking. We appreciate everything that professional drivers do for us and for America as a whole.”, says Delia Moon Meier, Oakgrove 70 Petro Senior Vice President. “The Walcott Truckers Jamboree is the perfect chance for us to say ‘thank you’ and it also gives the general public a chance to learn about trucks and trucking.
