The City of Elkton is partnering with the Todd County Public Library and Family Resource and Youth Services Center (FRYSC) to present the city’s inaugural Touch-A-Truck event.
The event will take place Saturday, June 7 at Elkton-Todd County Park from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Touch-A-Truck is an educational, hands-on event for children to climb inside vehicles, honk horns, meet the vehicle operators and learn all about how they work. City Clerk and Treasurer Kayce Bright says 17 vehicles will be present.
The air-evac will also perform a landing and make a special appearance for children to see the helicopter.
Bright adds Fat Boyz Snowballz will be there to supply free snow cones and lemonades, O’Reilly Auto Parts will be giving out free hot dogs, Happy Bouncers will supply bounce houses and Living Ministries Church will have a face-painting stand. EnergyNet will also be sponsoring a bike raffle.
Bright says a lot of organizations in the community are coming together to help make this event possible.
With so many events geared toward adults, the City of Elkton felt strongly about creating an event geared toward children.
WEKT Radio will be broadcasting live from Touch-A-Truck from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on 1070 AM and 92.1 FM.
