Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can):
Curing Kids Cancer and the Derrick family are excited to be teaming up for Landon's Jeep Jamboree with Curing Kids Cancer! This event is making Landon's dream of seeing lots of Jeeps from across the country come true while donating all proceeds to one of his favorite organizations - Curing Kids Cancer!
Trooper's Take
This event was a blast! Lots of activity and interest, we were busy the entire time! Such a rewarding experience to meet little Landon and his family. He was shocked to see us (the best expression ever)! We did deliver some wrapped gifts to him (which I'm sure he will love). We also met Miss Soda City, and we were present on stage for the live auction. Our Jawa passed out trinkets to all the kids (gold coins, gems and the like).
Changing facility was an old ticket booth. While a bit worn-for-wear, I've changed in far worse.
Our hosts were great, and treated us really well and thanked us profusely for coming out.
We brought, ice cold drinks, sandwiches, fruit and desert for any trooper that wanted to partake.
Did this event support a charity? If yes, which charity?:
