This event is always exciting and gives children and grown-ups alike the opportunity to see these amazing vehicles up close.

This fun event will be outside in the Civic Center Parking Lot, the perfect outing for a Saturday! Come enjoy the spring weather and see some Big Trucks! Kids will get to learn about the vehicles, their operators, and how they help keep our town safe and beautiful.
