Community Corner

Annual Touch-a-Truck Event

Forget toy trucks – kids can get a close up look at the real thing! At the Spring-Mar Touch A Truck event, kids get a chance to be behind the wheel and rub elbows with their hometown heroes. Come climb and explore some of your child’s favorite vehicles including fire engines, police cars, trash trucks and construction trucks. This community event will provide families the opportunity to learn about and explore these vehicles and public safety equipment. Each truck will have a driver present to answer questions, help kids sit in the truck and even let kids honk the horn!

There will also be face-painting, glitter tattoos, pictures with the Spring-Mar Panda and our "Truck Stop" which is perfect for the really little ones.

Admission: $5 (children under 2 are free) - Event takes place rain or shine!
