Lee County is gearing up for a fun-filled weekend with the “Touch-a-Truck” event hosted by Lee County Parks and Recreation.
The event is happening at Mike Greenwell Regional Park, formerly known as the Lee County Civic Center Complex. This family-friendly event offers activities for everyone.
WINK News reporter Paul Dolan is on the scene to capture the excitement.
“If you hear honks and see flashing lights behind me, that’s because this place is turning into a kid’s dream come true,” said Dolan.
The event gives families a chance to get hands-on with fire trucks, big rigs, and heavy equipment not typically seen up close.
“Today’s Touch-a-Truck event is all about hands-on fun,” said Dolan. “Letting families get up close with fire trucks, big rigs, and heavy equipment you don’t see every day.”
The event begins at 9:30 a.m. and ends at 1 p.m. Kids can climb into the vehicles, ask questions, and meet the operators.
This event promises to be a memorable experience for families and an opportunity to learn more about the vehicles and the people who operate them.
