The Roanoke County Parks and Rec Dept. is hosting a Touch a Truck event. These are so fun...especially for little boys!
"This event is a community wide happening where kids and adults have the opportunity to see, touch, interact with and learn about dozens of cool vehicles. From fire trucks to motorcycles, cement trucks to police cars, UPS trucks to garbage trucks and why not airplanes as well.
How often does anyone get to look inside, sit inside and climb all over any of these unusual vehicles and get to talk to someone who operates them? And kids of all ages love these loud and unique vehicles.
Additional favorite activities will include events involving “water” such as Firemen’s Foam, misting tent, water spray and possibly even a water slide. Face painting, balloon sculptures, costumed characters, food vendors and other special attractions will help to add to the event’s appeal. Cameras will be highly recommended.
Here's a list of a few things you might see at the event!
• Firetrucks
• Garbage Trucks
• Race Cars
• Postal Cars
• Back Hoes
• Small Planes
• Bobcats
• Police Cruisers
• Tractors

Plus, I'll be there with my fiance's Farmers Insurance Agency sponsoring the Petting Zoo. He'll also have his wheelchair lift on display, which is WAY cool.
Hope to see you there!
