2024 Travis Mills Foundation Plane Pull ®

Presented By Hammond Lumber Company


Saturday, October 5, 2024, 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM
Northeast Air at Portland International Jetport, 1001 Westbrook Street, Portland, ME

Join the Travis Mills Foundation for an unforgettable day of strength, teamwork and community spirit at the 2024 Plane Pull ® on Saturday, Oct. 5 at Portland International Jetport, Portland, ME. 

 

Hosted by Northeast Air, 45 teams will compete to pull a 45-ton FedEx plane across 20 feet tarmac for the fastest time. This is a unique opportunity to challenge yourself, bond with your team, and have fun while making an impact on the lives of the post-911 recalibrated veteran families served year-round by the Travis Mills Foundation.

 

Teams are comprised of 20 pullers, BUT, you are encouraged to register up to 25 team members should someone have to drop out at the last minute. All teams must raise $2,500. 

 

Whether you’re pulling with friends, family, or coworkers, the Plane Pull is all about teamwork and supporting our nation’s heroes. Together, we can achieve something incredible!

 

While the 2023 Plane Pull was canceled due to an unforeseen and state-wide event, sponsors and team members raised just over $183,000 to support the Travis Mills Foundation mission. In 2022, 40 teams competed, raising a record-breaking $270K.


Supported by Northeast Air and FedEx!
