On Saturday, June 24, the Friends of the Plex will be holding a Touch-a-Truck event at the Niverville Arena, in support of the community’s multiplex project. This event, which has been in the works for seven months, will provide a day of food and fun experiences for the whole family.
The arena parking lot will be filled with construction vehicles, emergency vehicles, and farm equipment, among others. There will be both static and interactive displays for guests to enjoy.
Children of all ages will be welcome to climb into and explore the equipment in ways they wouldn’t otherwise have the chance to experience. Some of the confirmed equipment includes a semi-truck, a back hoe, an excavator, a fire truck, and race cars. More exhibitors are stepping up every day.
The event will run from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., rain or shine. Admission at the gate is $5 per person, and children two and under are free. A barbecue lunch will be served.
