We at Northshore Mama have boys…five boys between the two of us. All of our kids LOVE and have loved TRUCKS for as long as they could point and form sounds. Seriously, if we go to the store, they pick a truck to buy…even though they have 5 million at home. If we are out and about, we have to stop and watch or discuss all the trucks we see. So for the past few years we have been going to this AWESOME and FUN event called Touch a Truck. Basically you go to the event and the kids get to see and touch big trucks that them might not normally get to in the real world. This year the event is being held on September 29 from 10-1 at the Mandeville Campus of Church of the King (address is 22205 Little Creek Rd., Mandeville, LA 70471). This is a fundraiser for Northshore Families Helping Families. My kids look forward to it every year…even my Dad loves it!! Boys and their trucks!!
Here is some info direct from Northshore Families Helping Families…
Northshore Families Helping Families (NFHF) is a nonprofit, family led disability resource center based in Covington, Louisiana. Our mission is to provide individuals with disabilities the services, information, resources, and support needed to enhance their independence, productivity, and inclusion within our community. NFHF serves the parishes of St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, Livingston, St. Helena and Washington.
Touch a Truck is a fun family event where kids will have the opportunity to see, touch, interact with and learn about dozens of community vehicles they typically only get to see passing on the street. Kids of all ages and abilities can touch, discover and explore their favorite things on wheels like dump trucks, tractors, firetrucks, police cars, garbage trucks, mud trucks, sports cars, and more! There will be vehicles representing community emergency services, businesses, military, construction, tractor/farm vehicles, and cars just to name a few. Along with the vehicles, there will be food and drinks for purchase, music, games, and activities! We hope to see you there!
