Looking for some hands-on fun Thursday afternoon?
Eagle Mountain’s popular Touch-a-Truck event is back, offering kids the chance to get up close and personal with some seriously cool machinery. From 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. today at the Eagle Mountain Public Works building, children can climb inside everything from graders and track hoes to skid steers, dump trucks, and even snowplows.
This growing annual event isn’t just for kids, though. While little ones are busy exploring, parents can take a moment to chat with Streets Department staff about important topics like snow removal, road signage and maintenance plans.
Don’t miss the event’s most talked-about feature: the massive salt stockpile. Located right in front of the salt shed, visitors can walk inside to observe the mountain of salt that keeps Eagle Mountain’s roads safe in the winter.
Whether you’re a future equipment operator or just curious about how the City’s streets are maintained, Touch-a-Truck is a fun, family-friendly way to spend the afternoon.
Come join us at the Public Works building and see what makes this event such a local favorite.
