Kids of all ages will have the opportunity to look at, climb on and sound all the bells and whistles on nearly 30 different kinds of large scale construction and public service vehicles.

 

Kids can paint a toy vehicle to take home at the free craft tent, and families will enjoy a variety of entertainers on the performance stage, including musicians, magicians, and dancers! There will be free face painting and a raffle tent giving away lots of great prizes for the whole family, including cool items such as motorized kid’s vehicles and more! This is a great, hands-on opportunity for children and adults to explore all types of BIG vehicles. This event is for all ages to enjoy!
