Richmond Community College is bringing back the big wheels for Touch-A-Truck, an event that entertained hundreds of children and their families last fall. The event is a showcase of different types of trucks, machines and heavy equipment from all career fields.

Touch-A-Truck will be held from 4 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 22, in the parking lot of the Cole Auditorium on the Hamlet Campus of RichmondCC.

“The kids get to explore each vehicle, sit in the driver’s seat and generally just marvel at all these huge trucks, while also thinking about what they may want to do when they grow up,” said Janet Sims, Dean of Allied Health & Human Services. “We will also have information available about our college programs that lead to these careers, so we can show people that they don’t have to go far from home for great careers. RichmondCC has a lot to offer.”

There is no cost for admission for this event. Food will be available for purchase from several mobile food trucks, and children will be able to participate in other games and activities.
