3rd Annual Touch-A-Truck Day

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

The Stamford Historical Society will be hosting its 3rd Annual Touch-A-Truck Day from 1 – 4 p.m. in the afternoon. In addition to the trucks, there will be free face-painting for the children. Drinks, healthy snacks, and baked goodies will be available for purchase. Admission is $5/person and children under 4 are admitted free.

One of last year’s attendees thought sitting at the controls of an excavator was the “coolest” part of the day. Others enjoyed racing around in the fire department’s command vehicle. Visitors will be able to explore modern and historic fire engines along with a variety of construction trucks. Young or old, come toot the horn on a “big rig.”


All proceeds from “Touch-A-Truck” go to benefit The Stamford Historical Society, Inc., a not-for-profit organization that acts as municipal historian for the City of Stamford. The Society is an educational and research institution, whose primary functions are to collect, preserve, interpret, and exhibit materials relating to Stamford, Connecticut and the surrounding region.
