Cleveland Metroparks annual Touch-a-Truck event is coming back to Brookside Reservation on Sunday, October 1! Kids can get behind the wheel of approximately 50 vehicles, including construction trucks and equipment used to maintain and preserve Cleveland Metroparks at this unique outdoor event. The event is free for all guests and is presented by CrossCountry Mortgage and with support by Serpentini Chevrolet.

Families can see and explore big machines and vehicles including bucket trucks, front end loaders, bulldozers, excavators, backhoes, freightliners, police cars and more! Kids can also explore additional nature play opportunities at a 40-ton sandbox.
 
“Touch-a-Truck presented by CrossCountry Mortgage is a great, free opportunity for families to come out and engage in discovery and hands-on learning,” said Cleveland Metroparks CEO Brian M. Zimmerman. “Kids can get an up-close look at the heavy equipment and machinery that’s used to maintain and care for our nearly 25,000 acres of green space across Northeast Ohio."

Guests attending the event also receive $5 discounted admission the same day to Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.
 
Touch-a-Truck runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on October 1, 2023. Free parking is available. Visit clevelandmetroparks.com/touchatruck for more information.
