Take the kids out this weekend to explore Milton's biggest trucks!
From 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Sept. 17, Milton Recreation is hosting its annual Touch A Truck event in Bombardier Park.
Children of all ages are invited to visit, sit in and touch big vehicles like a dump truck, fire truck, police cruiser, ambulance and many more. Drivers will be on site to talk with children, parents and other caregivers about the vehicles and what they do.
For those who would like a quieter Touch A Truck experience, "Quiet Time," when no horns will be blared, will occur from 9-10 a.m.
