Convoy delivers thousands of toys to Wartrace


By ZOË HAGGARD – [email protected]

Some 150 bikes and 60 present automobiles got here rolling into Wartrace Sunday afternoon. However regardless of the leather-based chaps and roar of dozens of combustion engines, the seemingly robust crowd got here to carry Christmas presents for native children in want.    

It was the twenty fifth Annual Freeway 41 Toy Convoy. And in response to the convoy’s director, Katy Ishee, it was a hit.    

Lengthy distance awards go to 2 people — one touring from Austin, Texas, and one other touring from the Lake Erie space in Ohio — who got here only for the convoy. The Toy Convoy started over 20 years in the past with the initiative to carry somewhat little bit of pleasure to the native children.    

A former substitute instructor, Ishee mentioned, “I’ve had college students who had been helped once I first began the convoy who’re grown up now and have their very own children that come to the convoy. That touches my coronary heart like loopy.”  

For Billy and Frances Eley, they turned part of the toy donations simply out of enjoyment for giving to the group. All year long, Frances collects a whole lot of toys in order that round 2,000 toys have been collected or donated by the point the convoy comes round.    

“He and his spouse, they’re simply greatest. They’ve helped a lot. She is one who brings all the additional toys for the native children, made certain each child there obtained a present,” mentioned Ishee.     

“It means every little thing to me…I’ve seen these children and the house life they reside, and these children need assistance.”  

A lot of them come from troubled properties with absent dad and mom, so Ishee says any method they will carry pleasure to them, the convoy appears to be like to take action.    

The convoy used to experience into Tullahoma however moved to Wartrace round three years in the past. And since then, Wartrace has proved to be a perfect “Christmas Village” setting for the vacation occasion.  
A Christmas Village and Market shall be arrange in Wartrace on Saturday, Nov. 27. Native artisans, bakers, and craftsmen shall be arrange in town sq. all through the day. The Wartrace Christmas Tree Lighting occasion shall be Dec. sixth, starting at 5 p.m.
