Join us on Saturday, August 24th for the Smile Generation Denver Plane Pull presented by United Airlines.
A LAW ENFORCEMENT TORCH RUN EVENT
Hosted by Denver International Airport and Signature Aviation, the Plane Pull is a summer event unlike any other!
How it Works: Teams of 25 people will pull a United Airlines plane 12 feet across the tarmac competing for the fastest time! If you don't have 25 people on your team, that's ok we've got you! We will have volunteer Plane Pullers on standby so that you meet the 25 people to move the plane (team minimum must be raised).
