🚚🎉 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐂𝐇-𝐀-𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐂𝐊 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐈𝐒 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐊 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐘! 🎉🚚

The countdown is on!
We are just ONE WEEK away from an incredible day of big trucks, heavy equipment, community partners, family fun, and hands-on exploration inside all sorts or makes and models!

📢 A few important reminders before you arrive:

🕙 Doors open at 10:00 A.M. sharp!
Before then, all of the trucks, equipment, exhibitors, and volunteers will be busy getting everything into place and ready for your visit. Please plan your arrival accordingly.

🌭 BBQ on Site!
A big thank you to the United Way, who has generously offered to run the BBQ again this year. Food and drinks will be available throughout the event and all donations are appreciated!

☀️ Be Prepared for the Weather as Touch-a-Truck has often been a super hot day, so don't forget: ✅ Sunscreen, ✅ Hats, ✅ Water bottles etc. to stay cool and comfortable

🩹 First Aid Station will be located at the Main Gate/ EarlyON booth and the added bonus is we usually have a Community Paramedic on site in case something really big needs addressing (let's hope not!).

🎧 Noise-Cancelling Headphones Available- as with the last few years, instead of a designated quiet time, families can sign out noise-cancelling headphones at the Entrance Tent to help make the event enjoyable for anyone not into sirens.

🚗 Additional Parking Available
Extra overflow parking will be available at the Memorial Centre.

🚜🚒🚓 Get ready to climb aboard, honk some horns, meet the people behind the vehicles, and enjoy a fantastic day with family and friends. We can't wait to welcome everyone for another amazing Touch-a-Truck event!

See you in ONE WEEK! 🎉🚚👷‍♂️👮‍♀️🚒🚜

Thank you to students Thousand Islands SS - UCDSB for repurposing wood from our school to design and build a welcoming bench for our entryway.
