10 Oregon Trucking Association, Inc. Oregon Truck Dispatch OTA Delivers Free Lunches During National Truck Driver Appreciation Week By Jennifer Sitton | OTA Communications Consultant OTA STAFF AND volunteers celebrated National Truck Driver Appreciation Week in September by handing out free boxed lunches to drivers as they passed through the Cascade Locks, Ashland, and Woodburn weigh stations. Thanks to the generous donations of so many OTA members, over 650 drivers received a fresh lunch to keep them fueled on the road. “Driver Appreciation Week is one of our favorite events of the year,” said Jana Jarvis, President & CEO of OTA. “It gives us a chance to thank the hard-working truck drivers who keep Oregon’s economy moving every day.” “I always look forward to Driver Appreciation Week not only because we have a free meal to look forward to, but because it gives us a chance to slow down and really be grateful for the work that truck drivers do every day,” said Randy Pray, a flatbed driver from A&M Transport. “A lot of folks don’t think about how their food or clothes arrive on their doorstep. Hopefully Driver Appreciation Week reminds them to thank a trucker for the work they do every day!”
