Chicago Touch-A-Truck Events That Fuel the Fun

Bring your children to discover a variety of local vehicles up close. At past Touch-a-Truck events, the Batavia Park District's trolley, as well as a fire truck, police car, bus, tow truck, tractors and more have made appearances! Come explore! Sensory-friendly time will be offered.

This free event allows children to explore different trucks from around the community. They are welcome to climb, honk, and touch these large machines from right behind the wheel!
