It takes a Community: Corporate Sponsors, Community Organizations, High School Volunteers, Parks & Rec Department workers, and the Child and Family Volunteers- all to make Touch a Truck possible.
On Saturday, May 19th, 2018 the East Lyme Auxiliary of Child and Family Agency of Southeastern Connecticut and the East Lyme Parks and Recreation Department will co-sponsor the Eleventh Annual Touch a Truck event from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at McCook Point Park in Niantic, CT.
Even though the event is sponsored by these two groups, the undertaking is truly a Community Affair.

In keeping with our Community support, the event is also inter-generational. Students from the ELHS Drama program delight the children all day as they portray - in costume - Bob the Builder. In addition, the Leos of East Lyme High School assist all day with activities and parking.
Private sponsors, community organizations, high school volunteers- all make up the community that brings Touch a Truck to life!
