MARYSVILLE, Wash., August 20, 2023—Explore trucks and interact with vehicles at the annual Touch-A-Truck event on Saturday, September 9, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Totem Middle School’s Asbery Field, 1605 7th Street NE in Marysville. Horns and sirens will be active from 10 a.m. to noon, with a quiet hour from noon to 1 p.m.
This community-favorite event invites kids to sit in the driver’s seat of Marysville’s largest heavy-duty rigs. Children of all ages have a hands-on chance to honk horns, set off sirens and kick the tires on a variety of big rigs. Vehicles include a dump truck, vactor truck, police vehicles, street sweeper, fire engines, garbage trucks, a heavy expanded mobility tactical truck and many more. 21 Ton Excavator
