IdleAir thanks America’s professional drivers for bringing us the goods we use every day, and IdleAir thanks America’s men and women in uniform for giving us the freedoms we enjoy today.

As our way of saying thank you, IdleAir is proud to host a free BBQ for drivers this Saturday, May 28, 2011, from 11am to 7pm at the West Knoxville TA Franchise at I-40 / I-75 Exit 369 located at 615 Watt Rd, Knoxville, TN 37922.

Please join us to enjoy free BBQ pulled pork and meatloaf sandwiches from the West Knoxville Hillbilly Smokehouse, as well as other BBQ favorites and complementary soft drinks.

If you are unable to be with your family this Memorial Day weekend, please join us for the afternoon!

Ethan Garber, IdleAir’s CEO, said, “America’s Professional drivers are out there 365 days a year, delivering the loads that keep our economy running.  We can’t say Thank You enough to these hard-working men and women on the road and in the armed services.  As a sign of our appreciation, this Memorial Day weekend, we invite professional drivers to our hometown, Knoxville, TN to enjoy a free BBQ.”

IdleAir uses homegrown electric power from domestic energy resources, which reduces demand for imported oil.
