On Saturday, September 10th, the largest Touch-A-Truck event in Maine, if not all of New England happens right here in our area!

Tractor trailer trucks, police, fire and rescue vehicles, HUGE construction vehicles, trucks from the military, race cars and even a helicopter, will all be all display and ready to be touched!  There ain't nothing like watching the expression of a young kid's face when he or she climbs into the driver's seat of a big rig!

This is a GREAT event for the kids, so bring the entire family out to Speedway 95 on the Odlin Road in Hermon.  It happens 11AM until 3PM, and the cost is $5 per person, or, $20 for a family up to six.

There will be a bounce house, food for sale, face painting too, and the Darling's Ice Cream Truck will be there selling the good stuff for donations.

Once again, this year's Touch-A-Truck will benefit Camp CaPella, the summer camp for kids with mental and physical disabilities on Phillips Lake in Dedham.
