In previous years, the Junior League of Wilmington's annual Touch-a-Truck, has been an educational community event where children are given the opportunity to see and touch heavy machinery and meet the people who build, protect, and serve the Wilmington community.
To protect the health of the community and volunteers, the Junior League will host a drive-thru version of Touch-a-Truck. The event will be in a hybrid drive-thru format where children can view and experience the trucks and machinery that help keep Wilmington and the surrounding communities safe and thriving, all from the safety of their own vehicles.
New interactive opportunities, such as a seek and find game, along with photo opportunities will be available. The event, open to the public, will be held held Sunday, April 25, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at The Barclay Centre, 3151 S. 17th St., Wilmington. Tickets are currently on sale in 20-minute time intervals, and the first two time slots (11 a.m. to 11:40 a.m.) will be horn and light-free.
