If it's Sunny...it must be Summer!






It's so close to the end of the year and all of us here at Hoglund Transportation look forward to finishing this school year off well!  We hope that all of our students return to us in the fall and have a blast this summer. Remember to finish strong and be safe during this well earned vacation!

Sidney Driver Saves Choking Boy!!!

While driving on May 1st  Nathan Philbrick thought it was just going to be another run of the mill route, he was wrong. With only two pick-ups remaining before he reached the school he noticed a girl calling out on the bus. He was thinking she was just going to have some sort of silly announcement until he looked at her face. From her expression he knew something serious was happening and that he needed to take action.

The little girl was pointing across from her at a little boy who she had just boarded the school bus with. The boy was grasping at his thought and was silently crying. At that moment he safely stopped the bus and went to the boy. As a mandatory regulation by his employer, Philbrick was well aware of how to perform the Heimlich maneuver in the proper way. Shortly after starting a piece of candy was dislodged from the boys throat  and sent flung across the bus.

Thanks to this drivers attentiveness to his pass angers this little boy was able to be saved. Both Driver and the little girl who pointed the boy out are to be given awards for their respective rolls in saving this little boys life.

Thank You,
Haleigh

Find the Fish!


    As a promotion for one of our "Hoglund Companies"- U-Save Auto Rental- we have begun a fun little event. When you rent a car/van you will find a note inside telling you that you have become part of an involuntary scavenger hunt. It's pretty simple though so no worries. All you have to do is find the Swedish fish hidden in the car!

   We are not professional hide and seekers so the task is easily accomplished and your reward is sweet! When you find the fish you will also find a note with them. This note gives you the background information on why we have hidden the fish in the first place! Aside from the note and the fish, you will find an otherwise clean and ready to roll car! We enjoy our jobs while you enjoy our business. We look forward to seeing you soon!
