Our wildly popular Touch-a-Truck event is back and bigger than ever!
Cost: Free for all ages
Climb aboard and explore the giant machines that help build, fix, and move our city! Kids (and curious grown-ups!) can get up close with trucks and heavy-duty vehicles they normally only see from afar. Bring your excavator-obsessed toddler or any little vehicle fanatic for hands-on fun they’ll never forget!
Quieter Hour (9 am - 10am)
- Vehicle horns and sirens will be restricted whenever possible
- Some vehicles will have horns temporarily disabled
- Activity areas will operate at lower sound levels
Throughout the day, a limited number of child-sized noise-canceling headphones will be available to borrow while supplies last. Families are also encouraged to bring their own if helpful.
Pack a picnic and make a morning of it! Our new outdoor picnic area will be open for families who want to relax and refuel.
