TOUCH-A-TRUCK
2007
Hundreds
of families showed up for our first annual Touch-A-Truck event at
the Jackson County Fairgrounds on May 19, 2007. Children explored
construction vehicles, big rigs, public safety equipment and more.
In addition, they made macaroni jewelry, painted their faces and
climbed a rock wall. Not only did this event raise several thousand
dollars for the women and children of Jackson County, it also
provided inexpensive entertainment that brought whole families out
together.
