Touch-A-Truck Event: A Hands-On Family Event for Kids of All Ages

Rosalia Nocerino, Neighbor

Tuckahoe, NY – What kid wouldn’t love to climb aboard a bulldozer, fire truck or ambulance?  The Junior League of Bronxville’s Touch-A-Truck event provides an opportunity for children to get hands on with a variety of vehicles-public service, construction, utility, landscaping, transportation, antique cars-all in one place. The Junior League of Bronxville (JLB) will hold its 4th Annual Touch-A-Truck family event, Saturday, October 5, 2013, from 10:00 am – 3:00 pm, at the Immaculate Conception School Field located at 53 Winterhill Road and White Plains Road (Rte 22) in Tuckahoe, New York. 

“Touch-A-Truck gives the JLB an opportunity to bring families from every town in our service area together and allows young people the freedom to explore a variety of vehicles in one big community gathering,” said TAT Committee Co-Chair Eileen Palma. “Children will be able to climb on and ask questions about the vehicles and equipment and learn how these machines help us and our community,” said TAT Co-Chair Nicole Smith.  Bouncy houses, crafts, and kid-friendly food will round the event out to make it a truly exciting day.

Tickets for Touch-A-Truck are available at www.jlbronxville.org or at the door. The cost is $10 for an individual ticket ($15 at the door) or $30 for a family of four.
