American Truck Group Brings Christmas to Gulfport!

GULFPORT, MI--December 23, 2011: The American Truck Group (ATG) decided to share a little Christmas cheer Monday.

As part of their employee Christmas party, the trucking company, located off of I-10 and Canal Road in Gulfport, handed out hundreds of presents to children.

They invited their families, customers, vendors and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Hancock County, Pass Christian and Gulfport.

To the surprise of many, Santa Claus arrived. However, he didn't have his reindeer. Instead his sleigh was pulled ATG style on the back of a decked out, red Volvo 780 truck. Now that's decking the haul!

As the children rushed to greet Santa to take pictures and make wishes, to the children's delight, Mrs. Claus and their elves were already making wishes come true as they distributed hundreds of presents to a sea of smiling kids.

The festivities concluded with plenty of food and Christmas goodies. With fingers crossed, children also wrote letters to Santa in hopes that he wouldn't leave without bringing them to the North Pole.
