About this event

Touch A Truck is a delightful event for families, especially those with young children fascinated by big vehicles. Held at Armory Park, this event offers a hands-on experience with various types of trucks, making it a fun and educational outing. The inclusion of food trucks adds a tasty twist to the day.

The event is designed with safety in mind, featuring crossing guards and a dedicated parking area. With a portion of Maple Avenue closed for the event, it's easy to navigate and enjoy the sights. Whether you're a truck enthusiast or just looking for a fun family day out, this event promises a memorable experience.

From the organizer

Join us for Touch a Truck 2026 presented by Lannon Stone Foundation! This event is geared toward kids ages 2-8, but will appeal to anyone--kid or adult--who loves trucks! So many types of trucks … including food trucks! To make room for all of the big amazing trucks that will be at this event, we need to use a portion of Maple Avenue in front of the park. The road will be closed from Maple Grove Lane to Sussex Preserve Boulevard starting at 9 a.m. A detour will be in place. Entrance to this event will be from Maple Avenue north of Maple Grove Lane ONLY. You will turn left into the park and park as directed. Please be careful of pedestrians and utilize our crossing guards to safely cross Armory Road between the trucks.
