•CR&R Delivers Jack a Happy 4th Birthday

What a treat to be invited to young Jack's 4th birthday as CR&R came by with gifts and a drive by. 

The element of surprise. 

I asked Jack's mom Anna when his interested in trash trucks began, "It was about a year ago, he started hearing them outside. It didn't matter what he was doing at the time, we had to stop what we were doing and go out and look at every single trash truck... it just became a thing, out of nowhere, from one day to the next he was obsessed. On Wednesdays, 'oh it's trash day, it's trash day', and that's all that mattered."

CR&R's Ally Price presents Jack with a hat and a vest for his birthday.

Anna continued, "We let him pick his birthday theme every year and he said he wanted a trash truck birthday. We thought, 'okay will have trash truck decorations' and stuff like that." 

Jack is presented with a care package from CR&R.

Ally Price of CR&R saw a video of Jack on Facebook as he was watching a trash truck on its usual Wednesday route. CR&R wanted to help celebrate his birthday and what a memorable event it all turned out to be! 😊

Jack in the driver's seat. He loved blasting the horn.

It's nice to see the kindness that is in our community, not always visible, but always present. 🙂

There was a good turnout of family, friends and neighbors.

The weather was mild.
