“We are continuing with our planning for this year’s event and remain optimistic that we will be able to celebrate America’s truckers come July,” Heather DeBaillie, vice president of marketing for the Iowa 80 group, organizers of the Walcott Truckers Jamboree, told Transportation Nation Network (TNN) on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, organizers of the mid-summer trucking tradition released a line-up of musical acts scheduled to perform at this year’s show.
