Kids Meet Trucks and Emergency Vehicles at Springdale Touch A Truck
This event has already happened. It took place on October 3, 2026. See what's coming up instead
The name of this event is an instruction, and you and your kids get to follow it. Most days, a truck is something you watch drive past. Children who spend the year pointing at vehicles from a distance get an event where the vehicles stay put and the point is to get close. Springdale’s annual Touch A Truck returns, and you are invited to come along.
