🚒 FREE Community Touch-A-Truck & Scouting Recruitment Day! 🚓

Discover the people, vehicles, and organizations that help keep our community running every day!

Join us for a FREE, family-friendly community event where children and adults can get an up-close look at a variety of emergency, utility, construction, conservation, and public service vehicles while meeting the professionals who use them every day.

Climb aboard participating vehicles, ask questions, and learn how the many organizations serving Chester County work together to keep our communities safe, healthy, and thriving. It's a unique opportunity to explore the equipment that powers our community and meet the people behind it.

As hosts of this community event, the scouting programs of St. Joseph Parish and the Downingtown Girl Scouts are proud to connect families with the organizations that serve our community while introducing youth to the values of leadership, citizenship, service, and outdoor adventure that Scouting provides. Families interested in learning more about Scouting are invited to stop by and discover the adventures and opportunities Scouting has to offer.
