As we head into the holiday weekend, all of us at Voyageur Bus Co. / Minnesota Coaches would like to wish our customers, employees, and the communities we serve a safe and memorable Independence Day.

Grandma’s Marathon Weekend

In less than 24 hours, approximately 100-200 drivers will clock in to help serve our community by transporting Grandma’s Marathon runners and spectators.

Reporting for duty at 3:15 a.m. is challenging on any day, but during an event that brings nearly 20,000 additional visitors to the area, it becomes an even greater responsibility.

While we love what we do, weekends like this require tremendous coordination, focus, and teamwork. Traffic will be heavy, emotions will be high, and safety and consistency will be more important than ever.

As my first year helping coordinate driver supplies, I’ve gained a new appreciation for the amount of planning that happens behind the scenes. What may seem simple from the outside represents countless hours of preparation and collaboration by dedicated people working together to make this event successful.

The runners are, understandably, the focus of Grandma’s Marathon weekend. But as you cheer them on, please also keep in mind the law enforcement officers managing traffic, the drivers ensuring everyone arrives safely and on time, and the many volunteers and staff members working behind the scenes.

If you think of it this weekend, please say a prayer for everyone involved—for safety, protection, and guidance.

Good luck to all the runners, and thank you to everyone helping make this incredible event possible.

🚌 🎉 🛑 Our year end luncheon! Great food, great raffles, and great quality time.

What a team we have that runs around town day in and day out. Truly honored to be part of such a team. Thanks to those that show up every single day making sure the most precious cargo gets to school safely each and every day. You’re worth more than a meal or a prize, but nothing could amount to how much we care and appreciate you all.

Here’s to the 25-26 school year almost being done! Can’t wait until we are all back together again this fall. Until then, enjoy the sunshine, freedom, and time with family! 🚌 🎉 🛑

This is why we choose to live where we live. Sometimes our faces hurt from the bitter cold, buses won't start, and we slide down icy/snowy hills. But this is a perfect example of why we stay!

Happy Hump Day! Make it a great one!
