]]> Every year, truck drivers across America play a huge role in keeping the holidays moving — from delivering gifts to hauling the tree that stands tall at the U.S. Capitol. This season, the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) is once again part of that proud tradition, sponsoring the 2025 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree as it makes its way across the country.

Affectionately known as “The People’s Tree,” the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree travels from a different national forest each year, making stops along the way to connect communities and share the holiday spirit. This year’s tree, called “Silver Belle,” comes from Nevada’s Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest and will journey all the way to Washington, D.C.

Truck drivers and families in Oklahoma will get a chance to see Silver Belle up close during a special whistle-stop celebration hosted by TCA. The free community event takes place Monday, November 10, from 5:00 to 7:00 PM at Remington Park in Oklahoma City (One Remington Place, C2 parking lot).

The event is made possible thanks to support from Oklahoma-based TCA members Drivers Legal Plan and Western Flyer Express, along with the Oklahoma Trucking Association. Attendees can expect a festive atmosphere filled with lights, community pride, and the kind of holiday spirit that trucking helps deliver every year.

“There’s no better way to kick off the holiday season than by welcoming the People’s Tree,” said Zander Gambill, vice president, TCA. “We are especially proud to sponsor this tradition and to offer a completely free event that brings people together in the spirit of the season. And we are grateful for the support of Remington Park, Drivers Legal Plan, Oklahoma Trucking Association and Western Flyer Express.”

Drivers can follow the Silver Belle’s route from Nevada to the nation’s capital using the interactive tracking map on the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree website. Whether you’re parked for a break or hauling through one of the tree’s stops, this event is a reminder of how trucking helps connect America — especially during the holidays.
