Get ready for one of Camp Verde’s most popular family-friendly events. Touch A Truck returns to the Camp Verde Sports Complex at 990 Champion Trail on Saturday, Feb. 14, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This hands-on event gives kids the chance to climb aboard and explore vehicles of all kinds, including public service and emergency vehicles, construction and transportation equipment, delivery trucks, and even some fun and flashy rides. Select vehicles will also feature live demonstrations, making it an exciting afternoon of discovery.
This is the fourth year that the Camp Verde Parks and Recreation Department has hosted this event for the community. Last year, there were 39 trucks at the event.
Free hotdog lunch will be provided and served by the Camp Verde Kiwanis Club.
Camp Verde Parks and Recreation Department thanks its sponsors for helping to make this event possible.
“We can’t wait to see the community come together for this unforgettable day of big trucks, big smiles, and big fun,” Camp Verde Parks and Recreation Department Recreation Supervisor Tiffany Smith stated.
