Touch A Truck - March 1st, 2026
Video Cred: East County Style
-

This family friendly community event gives children and adults the chance to get up close with large vehicles they usually only see from a distance. Fire trucks, police cars, farm equipment, construction vehicles, trash trucks, tow trucks, and other specialty vehicles will all be in one place for attendees to touch, sit in, and explore. Vehicle operators will be on hand to explain how everything works, answer questions, and safely demonstrate equipment.
Touch-A-Truck is designed to be educational, hands-on, welcoming, and fun for all ages. Children can imagine future careers, learn about safety, and build confidence by talking directly with the people who drive and operate these vehicles every day.
Touch-A-Truck helps strengthen connections between families and the local workers who serve our community, including first responders, farmers, highway crews, and utility operators. Meeting them in a relaxed, family-focused setting builds trust, appreciation, and a sense of pride in the people who help keep our community safe and running strong.
