Pennsylvania Town Surprises UPS Driver With Thank-You Party

Residents of Dauphin, Pennsylvania, organized an event to show their appreciation to their hardworking local UPS driver. The March 2 video shows residents lining up to greet driver Chad Turns with cheers, balloons, and more than $1,000.

Adam Shickley, who captured the video, said his wife Jenny organized the event on Facebook with the help of their local UPS office and dispatch.

The office sent Turns to an on-demand pickup as a ruse to get him to the event, according to reports. The neighborhood wanted to thank Turns for his service during the pandemic. Local media reported that Turns sometimes worked 70 hours per week to make sure the community received all their packages. Credit: Adam Shickley via Storyful
