This sometimes gets lost on the regional page so I thought I would post here as well. We had 14 states covered last year...more sounds better!
As we cross over into January it's time to generate interest into a now annual tradition. I am writing to see if you would please consider attending BONES (Bronco Owners North East States) now 10th annual "May It Forward" Bronco event. This event will be held May 17/18th in central Massachusetts at the PACC social club, 171 Kendall Pond Rd west, Gardner, MA 01440. Last year we shattered both attendance and donation total with our best year yet! BONES was fortunate to have over 108 trucks from 14 different states with one couple travelling all the way from Jacksonville Florida!! BONES collectively raised over $22,000 dollars donated to the Travis Mills Foundation! (www.travismills.org) This organization has a retreat in Rome, Maine that hosts post 9-11 veterans who have been injured in active duty or as a result of their service to our nation, at no cost, with various issues with adaptive family and outdoor activities as well as bonding with fellow veterans and their families. From their web page:
By the Numbers :
Proudly Supporting Post-911 Combat Veterans and their Families1,747 Veteran Families Served across 47 states, plus Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and Canada
10 Proud Years in Operation of our Foundation & Retreat
25+Awards & Recognitions for foundation charitable efforts
$0.00 Charged to Veterans and Families for our Retreats and programs.
We are now a two-day event with a Friday afternoon scenic cruise on May 17th with the main event being on Saturday, May 18th. The Friday cruise is just a leisurely ride through central Massachusetts with a photo stop mixed in and a chance to meet with other Bronco fanatics ending at the amazing Red Apple Farm in Phillipston, MA . Saturday is a donation only event with a day full of fun, food, Fords and friends. Broncos of every shape and size and year will be in attendance and we hope you can join us!The raffle has become legendary due to the generosity of people such as yourself. We have had a homemade quilt to Napa toolboxes to an original Sherman cooker, to a set of new Toyo tires were among many of the amazing items we have had over the years. We would be honored if you would consider us to achieve even more in 2024!!When we started this event there was about 25 trucks and now, we have grown to over 100 Broncos of all generations as well as 300 attendees with it expanding every year. This New England group and beyond is nothing short of amazing! Thanks a million for your time and consideration and let's May It Forward again for these brave heros!

also, wanted to mention that there has been a change for Friday night. I would like to leave Timpany Plaza, 360 Timpany blvd by around 3:30 or so. Please be gassed up and ready to roll by then. We will be changing up the route and will be stopping at The Red Apple Farm in Phillipston, MA. They have a brew yard and BBQ on site and will have parking for us. Will be an easy ride back to the hotel from there or stay and the ride will continue back to our departure site. Any questions feel free to ask! Can't wait!!!!
