The Churchill HS Interact club with the assistance of the Livonia AM Rotary Club, is hosting the annual Touch A Truck, which is a hands-on family event that provides a unique opportunity for children and adults alike to explore vehicles of all types including public service, emergency, utility, construction, landscaping, transportation, delivery, and just plain awesome – all in one place. 

Kids can blast horns and sirens, climb onto construction equipment, and learn how the equipment operates, all up close and hands-on. Children are encouraged to touch their favorite vehicles, get behind the wheel, and meet the people who help to build, protect and serve our community.
