The free event will be a chance for your young truck lover to see big trucks and rescue vehicles up close — and even sit in them.
Do you have a young truck lover?
Then mark your calendar for Tuesday, April 11. That's when Newtown Township will host a Touch-a-Truck event at the township municipal complex.
Young residents (ages 3-12) and their parent or caregiver can stop by between 1 and 3 p.m. to see "the big, hardworking trucks" and rescue vehicles used by local police, public works, the fire department and more. In addition to the police and public works trucks, Newtown Ambulance will be there, as well as Leck Waste Services, First Student Busing, and Newtown Fire Station 55.
