| Mark your calendars for our annual FREE Touch a Truck event on August 29 from 10:00 am. to 1:30 p.m.
We are excited to announce two big changes this year. First, the event is moving to the Farm, Home, & Youth Complex in Skippack, providing more parking and easier access for families. Please enter from Cressman Road. Second, we are adding fire prevention to this year's event.
Be sure to enter our Touch a Truck Coloring Contest, with entries due by August 10. Learn more here: https://www.skippackfire.com/news/1183/Touch-a-Truck-August-29th-Coloring-Contest
Families can enjoy inflatables, new activities, and plenty of hands-on experiences throughout the day. Skippack Emergency Medical Services will present Street CPR demonstrations every half hour, and attendees can watch a live vehicle rescue demonstration where firefighters cut apart a car to show rescue techniques.
Of course, there will be lots of trucks and equipment to explore, including construction, tree service, trash, public works and plenty of fire trucks on display.
Food will be available from Dallas' Fries, the 4-H Air Rifle Club, and the 4-H Dairy Club.
