Every child dreams of sitting behind the wheel of a fire truck, honking the horn of a dump truck or riding a roaming railroad. Those dreams can become reality at the Junior League of Greenwich’s (JLG) 18th annual “Touch A Truck!” This year’s event will take place on Sunday, June 10 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Greenwich Town Hall, 101 Field Point Rd. Rain or shine.
Touch A Truck! is an important fundraiser for the League and draws nearly 3,000 attendees each year. Girls and boys of all ages will enjoy the festivities. As always there will be firetrucks, including Greenwich’s new brush truck and an antique firetruck, as well as ambulances, a backhoe, a snowplow, a vacuum truck and more construction equipment than a child can dream. There will also be bounce houses, the Bubble Bus, the Fun Bus, ride-on Zoobots, Roaming Railways, slot car racing and RC Monster Trucks. Live shows by Greenwich Audubon, Mad Science, Tae Kwon Do and Kung Fu. Live musical performances by Jay and Ray as well as Songs for Seeds and a variety of food trucks.
General admission to Touch A Truck! is $40. Please also consider becoming a sponsor of a family by purchasing an Angel Truck Ticket. Proceeds from the event will benefit the community projects of the Junior League of Greenwich.
