Touch a Truck

September 3, 2013 By The Suburban Times

Pierce County News Release

Does your child have a love for trucks and large vehicles? Then check out Pierce County’s annual Touch-A-Truck event. The fun takes place on Saturday, Sept. 7, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.at Sprinker Recreation Center, 14824 South C Street. A special “no horns” time is scheduled from noon to 1 p.m. for sensory-sensitive children.

Kids of all ages will love to climb, run around, sit in and even honk horns of many types of trucks and vehicles. They can explore a fire engine, dump trucks, command center, bucket truck, striper, tractor, military vehicles, school buses and many more. New solid waste and LeMay vehicles, including a mobile shredder unit, have been added to the lineup.

Children must be accompanied by an adult. Also, bring your personal documents to be shredded for free. Food donation bins will also be set up to accept canned food items for the food bank.

Big Truck T-shirts will be on sale for $8 the day of the event. Don’t miss your chance to buy one.

For more information, please call Parks and Recreation at (253) 798-4141.
