Touch a Truck - CANCELED
NEW LOCATION!
Due to the forecasted rain and thunderstorms, Touch a Truck has been CANCELED.
Cool trucks bring out the kid in all of us. Each year, West Chester flings open the garage doors and shares with the community all of the cool trucks that serve our community every day.
IKEA hosts the 2022 Touch A Truck event in their West Chester store parking lot at 9500 Ikea Way. Vehicles will be located on the Muhlhauser Road side of the property.
The event includes a “sensory friendly” hour from 10 to 11 a.m. Families may visit one hour early to see West Chester Township public service vehicles up close and meet the public servants who operate the equipment. All use of horns, lights and sirens is discouraged during this hour.
The full event gets rolling at 11 a.m. with fire trucks, police vehicles, snow plows, military vehicles, helicopters, rescue boats and more. Feel free to climb behind the wheel, sit in the shovel of the backhoe, and speak with the men and women who operate the equipment essential to community operations.
This event is completely free.
