Road Trippin’ Tips
1. Fill up with gas the night before & pack your non-essentials so you’re ready to leave first thing.
2. If you’re traveling with children, take toys they haven’t seen before or haven’t played with in a long time to entertain them in a car.
3. We all love junk food, but consider packing a couple of healthy snacks too so your body doesn’t feel awful when you get where you’re going.

The organization has grown tremendously since then!

What matters more than the miles is the AGE of the vehicle.
