Everyone is invited to celebrate the 20th Annual Highway 41 Toy Convoy and Show coming up Sunday November 6 in Manchester, TN. Lineup starts at 11 am and we roll at 1 rain or shine.
Lineup starts at Raiders Academy located on McMinnville Why @ I 24 exit 111. The purpose of the convoy is to raise toys for the children who can’t help themselves and to brighten up their Christmas. People from all over the South have converged on Manchester to celebrate the convoy for the last 20 years.
It’s only $10 per vehicle or $20.00 to enter the car-motorcycle-truck 4 x 4, rat rod show. You will receive 10 tickets then to be entered into the door prizes drawing and we have had some really nice prizes.
ALL VEHICLES large and small old and new, motorcycles, rat rod or hot rod, on road or off-road vehicles, buses and semis are welcome and you will see a little bit of everything. We ask that you fly the American flag in salute to our military. ALL American flags are welcome!!
Everyone is asked to please bring a new unwrapped toy to brighten Christmas morning.
This year wee have a new venue and the convoy will end at London’s who owns a nice park area next to their building. The convoy will travel with a police escort from Manchester down 55 to Tullahoma, turning north on Jackson Street, past the mall, cut over to Atlantic and backtrack downtown to Lincoln Street. Lincoln will be closed from Jackson Street to the RR and Atlantic on either side of Lincoln for parking.
This year we have an awesome group of musicians who are doing a tribute to DUANE ALLMAN Skydog, If you like the Allmans, you will love this show.
Door prizes will be given thru out the day and trophies will be given to the winners of the show. This year the trophies will have the American Flag theme.
Come on out and bring the kids to visit with Santa and enjoy the afternoon. The convoy has become a tradition for many families in middle Tennessee!
