Let’s pull together!
Each team will get one opportunity to pull a plane 50 feet across the tarmac in the shortest amount of time. The team with the fastest time for each plane wins bragging rights and fun prizes.
You can also win by showing your team spirit: team uniforms or costumes are encouraged! Your team will also get some great action photos to share.
Remember: You’re not just pulling a huge plane – you’re pulling together to help tackle poverty in our community.
Every ounce of your strength, teamwork, and determination transforms into help for individuals and families right here in London, Elgin, and Middlesex. Get ready for a day full of energy, friendly competition, and community pride. Come see how strong we are together: United!
