The Junior League of Chattanooga’s inaugural Touch-A-Truck fundraising event offered a family-friendly, hands-on opportunity for children to explore, climb on and touch more than 20 trucks of all kinds. Attendees also had the opportunity to meet the personnel who protect, serve and build the community, as well as learn how the featured vehicles relate to Tennessee’s economy and careers like farming, manufacturing, construction and public service.
“Kids see these trucks every day, but this event is a great way for them to touch and see the vehicles up close, talk to the operator and learn what the trucks are used for – not to mention the fun of getting to honk the horn or flash the lights!” said JLC President-Elect Sarah Arata.
