2025 Families and Freightliners Fest

---

At HTI, we completely understand that time on the road is time away from family; and family is the most important. Our Families & Flightlines Fest is all about family and bringing people together wherever we go. Every stop turns into a full-on family celebration, with face painting, cotton candy, bounce houses, water games, and food trucks filling the space with nonstop fun. Kids get hands-on experiences interacting with real trucks and equipment, while parents, friends, builders, riders, and supporters connect over craftsmanship, community, and shared passion. No matter the location, the heart of the fest stays the same: family first, hard work respected, and memories made long after the engines cool.

Getting kids involved is at the core of what we do, because they are the future of the trucking generation. That’s why we’re proud to work with the Women in Trucking Association to bring out the WITney® Trailer, featuring a simulator program that teaches kids and adults alike how to drive a truck in a safe, interactive way. By letting kids climb into real trucks, experience the simulator, ask questions, and see the industry up close, we spark curiosity, confidence, and respect for the hard work behind the wheel. These moments plant seeds early—showing them that trucking isn’t just a job, it’s a lifestyle built on pride, responsibility, and community, ensuring a stronger future for the industry we love. We had 93 individual, children and adults, try out the WITney simulator. It was an excellent day for exposure to the industry.
